At this time of year, as the nights draw in and the temperatures drop, many drivers find their battery is faltering, or possibly completely flat.
However, a difficult question that’s been raised on many occasions, is that without drivers experiencing starting problems, how do they know where their car’s battery is in its lifecycle? The answer, which is a subject that has also been raised on many occasions, is to have the battery tested, but realistically, motorists are not going to do this proactively, so it’s down to workshops to put a battery testing regime into practice. This policy is even more important as the seasons change and the increasing likelihood of some early morning frost or a prolonged cold snap.
