FREE Driveway Battery Testing for Peace of Mind
As the colder months approach, ensuring your vehicle remains reliable is more critical than ever. One essential aspect that often goes overlooked is the car battery's health. At Woodberry Mechanical Plus, we emphasise the importance of pre-winter battery check-ups to prevent any unforeseen breakdowns and to maintain your vehicle’s optimum performance.
The Impact of Cold Weather on Car Batteries
It’s a well-known fact that cold weather can significantly impact the performance of your car battery. The lower temperatures reduce the battery's capacity to hold a charge, thereby putting extra strain on it when starting the car. This added strain can lead to a decreased lifespan and, in some cases, failure to start altogether. This is particularly concerning for batteries that are over three years old, as their efficiency starts to wane. Regular testing of these batteries becomes indispensable to ensure your vehicle remains operational through the colder months.
Importance of Regular Battery Checks
At Woodberry Mechanical Plus, we cannot stress enough the importance of regular battery checks, especially before the winter sets in. A battery that is over three years old is likely to have undergone some wear and tear, reducing its performance and reliability. By conducting regular checks, potential issues can be identified early on, preventing the inconvenience of being stranded due to battery failure.
Rest assured that if you have your car serviced by us, we will automatically include a Battery Test and visual inspection each time. If the battery doesn't' pass the test then we will advise you and with your approval install a new one.

Our aim is to ensure that no matter your vehicle type or requirement, you have access to the best quality battery to keep your car running smoothly.
Quick Assessments and Replacement
If you're uncertain about your battery's condition, our experts at Woodberry Mechanical Plus can assist. We have the tools, such as a Battery Load tester, to quickly assess your battery's health. This assessment can provide peace of mind or, if necessary, we can replace the battery to ensure your vehicle remains operational. With a range of high-quality batteries on hand, we can promptly replace your battery, minimising any inconvenience.
So as the temperatures drop, don't let your car battery's health slide. Regular check-ups, especially for batteries over three years old, are crucial to avoid the unwelcome surprise of a car that won't start.
