SWINDON WORKSHOP · SN4 0HT

Car batteries in Swindon

Slow starts, a flat battery after a few days parked, or start-stop that stops working. We test the battery and the charging system, then fit the right battery for your car and register it where the car needs that.

Signs of a weak battery

Slow cranking

The engine turns over slowly, worse on cold mornings.

Start-stop gives up

Start-stop often stops working when the battery is weak.

Warning light

A battery or charging light on the dash.

Age

Batteries usually last around 4 to 6 years.

What we do

Test

The battery is tested, along with the alternator and charging system.

Fit the right type

Start-stop cars need an AGM or EFB battery. We fit the type your car is built for.

Register

Many newer cars need a new battery registered, so it is charged properly.

Flat again after a few days?

If a good battery keeps going flat, something may be draining it when the car is parked. We test for a parasitic drain and trace the circuit causing it.

Batteries for drivers around Swindon

The workshop is near Chiseldon and M4 junction 15. If the car will not start, call us first and we will talk you through the options.

We are at the Unicorn Business Centre, Ridgeway, SN4 0HT, near Chiseldon and a few minutes south of M4 junction 15. Royal Wootton Bassett and Purton are an easy hop along the M4 from junction 16, Marlborough is straight up the A346, and Highworth is down the A419. See the Swindon centre page for directions.

Questions we get asked

How long does a car battery last?

Usually around 4 to 6 years, depending on the car and how it is used.

Does my car need a special battery?

Cars with start-stop need an AGM or EFB battery. We fit the type your car is built for.

What does registering a battery mean?

Many newer cars need to be told a new battery has been fitted, so the charging system treats it correctly.

Why does my battery keep going flat?

It may be old, the charging system may be weak, or something may be draining it. We test all three.

What warranty is there on the fitting?

Our own 12-month / 12,000-mile parts and labour warranty, honoured at our Royston and Swindon workshops.
