At Hendrick Volkswagen of Concord, we operate a certified service department offering a VW Service Xpress battery replacement. Having trouble starting the engine on a cold morning? You could benefit from scheduling battery inspection and replacement as needed to prevent getting left stranded with an immobilized vehicle.
We don't recommend letting a battery die to know when replacement is necessary because nobody wants to fuss and hassle with an immobilized vehicle caused by a relatively inexpensive yet vital part. It is always best to replace a battery when it begins dying as evidenced by failing physical inspection or electrical testing.
When the battery is dead, that is too late because reliable performance and possibly safety are at risk if the battery dies while driving. Unless you happen to be a trained technician that can perform electrical battery testing, we recommend routine battery inspections and testing from a certified technician to know precisely when replacement is necessary.
If the battery passes the physical inspection, it will need to be tested to verify two electrical performance metrics in how much voltage the battery stores in reserve capacity and how much voltage it sends to the starter when it is cold, called cold-cranking amps. The expert technician uses a voltmeter and a special procedure to measure reserve capacity and cold-cranking amps to confirm specifications or recommend replacement.
Our battery replacement is a Service Xpress guaranteed to get our customers in and out with a brand new factory authorized battery as quickly and as conveniently as possible with no appointment. If your battery is more than two years old or has started experiencing signs of electrical performance decline, we invite you to our service department for a visit to receive battery replacement that restores the electrical system to peak performance at specifications. Whether you need a battery replacement, an oil change, brake repair, or tire rotation the service department at Hendrick Volkswagen of Concord is here to help and answer any questions.Â
