Car battery replacement

It is vital that your car battery is fully charged and in good working condition, or you may find yourself stranded with a vehicle that will not start.

The battery is the primary source of power for your car. It provides electricity to the starter motor, fuel pump, and engine control computer so your vehicle can start.

All electrical components of your car, including the radio and headlights, are also powered by the car's battery.

5 signs your car battery is dying

Here are five warning signs that your car battery is about to fail:

1. A slow starting engine

If you notice your engine is taking much longer to turn over and start, installing a new battery (not just a recharge) might be necessary. A battery's internal components become less effective over time, making it harder to power your car.

2. Dim lights and electrical issues

Frequently flickering or dim headlights and dashboard instruments often mean you need a battery replacement. Batteries lose charge over time; the more accessories you use while driving (phones included), the quicker the battery can expire.

3. Bad smell

When you open the bonnet and it smells like rotten eggs or sewer gas, your battery may be damaged or dying. Damaged batteries can leak hydrogen sulphide gas — you will need a new battery.

4. Corroded terminals

Do the metal parts of your battery have a white, ashy residue? That is corrosion. Corroded terminals cause voltage problems and make it difficult to start your car.

5. Your car battery is over three years old

Car batteries typically last 3–5 years in optimal conditions. Climate, electronic demands, and driving habits can shorten life — have it tested regularly.

What is the procedure for replacing a battery?

Professional replacement

Changing a car battery is straightforward when you use a professional service. The first step is to run a test charge to rule out charging issues. If it does not hold charge, the battery is removed to check the charging system. The old battery is then replaced with a new one. Our partner repair centres can also recycle your old battery responsibly.

How often should you replace your battery?

Typical lifespan

While 4–5 years is a general recommendation, driver and vehicle usage varies. Get your battery checked at a service provider or mechanic regularly to monitor its condition.
