Car Battery Maintenance

(1/3) > >>

hwlee:
Finally my car battery walks into it's graveyard after it's served my ride for 3 yeasr and 3 months. I have been told by the foreman that the battery can last longer if I do filled battery water to it. The battery written is Zero Maintenance and I totally don't know it required battery water. LOL

The foreman shows me the condition of the dead battery and I found it is Dried and the metal part inside it is damaged.

Although my voltage stabilzer showing the dead battery is 12.7V and I check my ride's alarm system, audio, Aircon, All lights (included HID) are still function pretty well but it just couldn't start the engine. Luckily I am at home and I can jump start my ride then drive to the workshop.

just sharing.

Hmm, I think you should check your car battery water level on regular basic (espicially after 1 year it installed on your ride).

I found my DVD radio preset is lost everytime I start the engine since few weeks ago. That's the only warning about my car battery is going to die.

So, make sure you got Super Thick Jump Start kit (not those available at hypermarket) with you if you found your car couldn't be started but all other electrical devices are still functional.  :D

I have a question here. How long does a battery last for Latio?

I bought my car Nov 2008 and by Aug 2009, the battery went flat (at 20,999KM). The guy from Tan Chong  whom I called claimed that the battery expired. Then recent the second battery went flat again (12th Aug 2010). It seems to me that there might be some problem with the actuator of my car, but the man from Tan Chong again blame it on the battery. To me it is too much of a coincidence and everytime they come on the road to help me change the battery, it costs me almost SGD100!

I am not sure if any one here has the same experience as I and may be you can share your knowledge.
