Cold weather can significantly affect car battery performance. As temperatures drop, the chemical reactions inside the battery slow down, reducing its ability to produce sufficient power to start your vehicle. At the same time, colder temperatures make it harder for your engine to turn over, placing additional strain on the battery. This is why testing your battery regularly, especially during winter, is essential for reliable performance.
Approved Automotive Services understands the challenges cold weather can bring and ensures your battery is checked for optimal performance during every visit to our Newton workshop.
We make it a point to include battery testing during every log book service. This proactive approach ensures any potential battery issues are identified early, preventing inconvenient breakdowns and costly repairs. Whether you’re dropping in for scheduled maintenance or a quick check-up, our team prioritises your vehicle’s reliability so you can drive with confidence.
Inspecting and testing a car battery involves a series of simple but essential steps. At Approved Automotive Services, our technicians begin with a visual inspection to check for corrosion, damaged terminals, or loose connections. This is followed by voltage testing to measure the battery’s charge level. Finally, a load test is performed to simulate real-world conditions and determine if the battery can provide adequate power under strain.
This thorough process ensures that any potential issues are identified early, giving you peace of mind every time you start your car.
Recognising the early signs of battery failure can help you avoid being stranded. Common symptoms include:
