What is servicing the battery/cables all about?

In order for everything to operate properly in your car, the battery and its cables should be in optimal condition. By its very nature, a battery can cause corrosion, and cables can become loose or frayed, or touch other parts of the under hood area. Checking that all is well with the battery and its attachments is a wise idea for trouble free motoring.

Keep in mind:

  • Battery acid is extremely corrosive, and caution is advised.
  • There is potential for electric shock when working with these components. Leave this work to one of our expert technicians.

How it's done:

  • The radio codes and stations are written down or a memory saver is used
  • The negative and positive cables are disconnected from the battery
  • The battery terminals, cable ends are cleaned and serviced
  • The battery terminals are reconnected to the battery and the battery is tested
  • The radio code is entered and the stations are reset as needed

Our recommendation:

Have the battery and cables checked every time your car has routine maintenance performed.

What are the common symptoms indicating you need to service the battery/cables?

  • Car has trouble starting
  • Visible deposits or corrosion on the battery
  • Signs of wear on the battery cables

How important is this service?

Without a properly charged battery and securely attached battery cables, your car won’t start.

I swapped car with my daughter to put new winter tires on hers (I always use steel spiked winter tires here in Sweden). It is a 2011- Seat Leon with 155 000 km on the odometer (about 9700 sm).The tires, Good Year Ultra Grip, I put on have in reviews received good grades on noise, but I feel that I hear a rumbling noise that I do not recognize even though these types of tires always produce more noise than summer tires which it had when I last drove it.Putting my finger on the wheel hubs outside of the brake disks, the left hub is lukewarm but the right one is cold, this after an hour drive on the motorway in -7 degrees C.I just replaced the rear wheelbearings on my Volvo V70, but it had more than twice the distance on the odo. That hub was hot after driving it and some noise.On the V70 my reasoning was that if one was warn out, the other one would not last much longer so I changed the both of them.Can I be sure that this really is a faultering bearing on the Seat? In that case chances are that it is a premature failure or? and in that case I need to change only the left one?I do all this myself in my garage, therefor I don´t want to go to the dealership to pay for the diagnosis and then decline having them do the job.How can I be sure I take the right decision?
