The car battery is a vehicle part that car owners often neglect. According to the ADAC, almost 46% of all vehicle breakdowns in 2022 could be attributed to the car battery. The electrification of combustion engines also increases power consumption. It is therefore important to have regular battery checks carried out on modern vehicles to prevent battery failure.

Checking the charge status
A special measuring instrument that precisely determines the charge status is suitable for checking the charge status of a conventional car battery. A multimeter can be used to measure the standby voltage. If the voltage drops below 12.4 volts, it is advisable to charge the battery as soon as possible. A continuously low charge status leads to damage to the battery.
Importance of the cold start current
As the main load on a traditional starter battery occurs primarily when the engine is started and no further discharging takes place after charging by the alternator, the cold start current is particularly important. Over time, the capacity of the battery decreases due to ageing and wear. In addition, a lower state of charge, which is determined by measuring the open-circuit voltage, has a negative effect on the power available when starting the engine.
**Many years of experience:**Our team is made up of numerous master mechanics, automotive technicians and automotive mechatronics engineers who have extensive knowledge in the inspection and maintenance of batteries.
**Transparent communication:**We attach great importance to transparency in all aspects of our work. This means that you receive clear information about the process, costs and timescale before, during and after the battery check.
**Fast appointment booking:**You can conveniently book an appointment for the battery check via our online appointment scheduler.
A weak or discharged battery can result in the vehicle not starting, which is particularly common in cold weather.
Neglected battery maintenance can lead to expensive repairs, as a defective battery can stress and damage other components of the vehicle.
A weak battery can affect the overall performance of the vehicle, including the efficiency of the engine and the functionality of accessories.
