Your engine is a marvelous machine, producing torque by converting fuel into explosive power. It can fire thousands upon thousands of times every minute, but that’s only possible after it starts up, and the key to starting up is your battery. The easiest way to avoid a dead car is to stay on top of your battery’s condition, and that’s done through battery service. At Cooley Volkswagen, we provide every battery service you could need, so you can know precisely when you need to get your car’s battery replaced.
Car batteries are rechargeable, which allows them to work much longer in your car than they would otherwise. When you turn the key (or push the button), your battery sends vital electricity to the spark plugs. They provide the initial sparks that light your first cylinders full of fuel, and from there, the engine’s motion sustains the movement to get more fuel and vent the by-products. After the engine starts running again, your battery is recharged by the alternator constantly so that it can be ready to do the same the next time you turn on the car.
Taking care of your battery can be hard to remember to do, but we’ve done everything we can to make our battery services convenient and easy for you. Here are just some of the battery services we can help you with:
Time and the elements can cause your terminals to corrode, which puts a layer of less-conductible material inside the connections. We’ll get all that corrosion off so that your battery can easily send the electricity necessary.
We can check your battery’s capacity to deliver and receive a charge. Our technicians will also look over the outside of the battery itself and the tray and connections.
When your battery is close to not being able to hold the charge necessary, we can replace it with the correct battery for your car and make sure you’re all set for your startups.
Our experts will make sure you’re in control of your car’s battery so that you can replace your battery when it needs to be replaced and avoid any startup issues that might arise. There’s nothing quite like the confidence in your battery that comes from knowing it’s able to give your engine the right sparks when needed.
