3 Reasons to have your Battery Checked
1. Engine Starting Trouble: The first reason you may need to test, recharge, or replace your car battery is due to difficulties when starting the engine. A faulty or old battery can cause a slow cranking of the engine during startup or the vehicle might not start at all. This can cause unnecessary hassle, especially when you are in a hurry or stranded somewhere.
2. Flickering or Dim Lights: Car lights and electronics get their power from the car battery. If you notice that the lights are flickering or not as bright as usual, this could be a sign of a weak or failing battery. A simple battery check could prevent an electrical system failure which can cause serious damages.
3. Old Battery: If the battery in your vehicle is over three years old, it may be best to have it checked, as they can start to fail at any time after this. Regular check ups prevent sudden battery breakdown which can lead to more serious mechanical issues.
Tom Leyden Tyre & Mechanical in Gracemere understands these needs and caters not just to conventional cars, but they also supply batteries for 4x4s, SUVs, ATV bikes, Lawn Mowers, Boats, Tractors, and even for Industrial use.
The diverse range of battery options we have available makes us a convenient one-stop-shop for your battery needs, irrespective of the type of vehicle you have. Our expertise ensures that your battery is fitted properly, recharged accurately, or replaced with the perfect new one, extending the life of your vehicle.
