A car’s battery is one of its most essential components, providing the power needed to start the engine and run vital electrical systems. Despite its importance, the battery is often overlooked until it fails, leaving you stranded at the worst possible moment. Regular battery checks can help prevent unexpected breakdowns and ensure your vehicle runs smoothly.  At Brian Turner Automotive  in Stuart Park, our team specialises in keeping your car powered and reliable. Whether it’s a routine check or a full replacement, we’re here to handle all your battery needs with expertise and care. Signs Your Car Battery May Need Attention One of the most common signs of a flat or faulty car battery is a slow engine crank. When you turn the key or press the start button, the engine may struggle to start, taking longer than usual or sounding weak. This is often an early warning that your battery may not have enough power to perform effectively. Another clear symptom is dim headlights. If your headlights seem less bright than usual, especially when the engine is off, it could indicate that your battery is losing its charge. Since the battery supplies power to all electrical components, this dimming can also extend to other parts like interior lights or your radio. Dashboard warning lights are another important indicator. Many vehicles have a battery-shaped warning light that may come on if there’s an issue with your battery or charging system. If this light appears, it’s a good idea to have your battery checked as soon as possible. Additionally, electrical malfunctions like failing power windows, unresponsive door locks, or issues with your car’s infotainment system can point to a weak or failing battery. Modern cars rely heavily on electrical systems, and a faulty battery can cause these features to behave unpredictably. Lastly, a swollen battery case or an unusual smell, like rotten eggs, coming from under the hood are physical signs of a problem. These issues may indicate a battery that’s overheated, leaked, or suffered internal damage, and it should be replaced immediately to prevent further issues. If you’re noticing any of these symptoms, it’s crucial to act promptly. A failing battery can leave you stranded without warning, so don’t hesitate to reach out to our team at our Stuart Park workshop for a professional battery check or replacement.

Importance of Regular Car Battery Maintenance

Keep your cool, without global warming. A proactive car air conditioning approach to protecting our environment.  As Australia begins phasing down HFC use (from January 2018), many new vehicle manufacturers may be switching to new air conditioning systems using the more environmentally friendly refrigerant R-1234yf, instead of R-134a. The benefits of using R-1234yf "Twelve Thirty Four", as R-1234yf is sometimes known, is an HFO type refrigerant delivering high performance, resulting in a more efficient air-conditioning system, fewer emissions and reduced fuel consumption. Hydrofluoroolefins (HFO's) have a double carbon bond meaning they trap less heat in the atmosphere than Hydrofluorocarbons (HFC's) and break down faster. Importantly, R-1234yf systems are specifically engineered to prevent refrigerant leakage and loss, including into the interior of the vehicle. The leakage of refrigerants contributes considerably to greenhouse gases. Why the switch? Older type refrigerants accumulate in the upper atmosphere as greenhouse gases and contribute significantly to Global Warming for a considerable time. In the mid-'90s, the old R-12 (or Freon), which takes a long time to break down into a non-greenhouse gas, was replaced with R134a, which breaks down much quicker. R-1234yf takes that improvement to the next level, breaking down in less than half the time of R-134a (and a fraction of the time R-12 can take). R-134a will remain in use for some time and a licensed mechanic can still service R-134a air con systems, but new vehicles will likely use the new systems with R-1234yf. Some already are. Irrespective of what type of refrigerant your car air conditioner uses, a car service workshop undertaking air conditioner service must have the right knowledge and equipment to handle these gases responsibly. You should always take your car to a mechanic with the skills and specialist equipment to undertake air conditioning service safely and correctly.

Modern radiator coolants not only protect your car from overheating, or the fluid from freezing, they also protect the radiator system from corrosion. Brian Turner Automotive  in Stuart Park are very knowledgeable and experienced in looking after these systems.  It is recommended that you exchange your radiator coolant fluid every two years or 40,000 km's whichever comes first. However the size of the engine, the climate in your area, the age of your current coolant, and the total miles that have been driven can all affect the need to replace the coolant in your radiator. Knowing when to replenish your radiator fluid isn't always easy - obviously, when it has gone a dirty brown colour it's a sign it probably needs to be flushed and replaced - however even fresh-looking coolant could have lost its corrosion protection properties and without measuring its reserve alkalinity there's no signal that it is no longer protecting your vehicle components, and it could even be doing more damage than good. Maintaining good coolant means your radiator system will be much better protected from corrosion and will have a longer life span, it will help prevent you from having to replace expensive engine components. At Brian Turner Automotive  in Stuart Park at your request, we will perform a full 65 Point Vehicle Inspection report for free as part of any minor, major or log book service. Part of this inspection includes checking the level and condition of coolant in your system and the written report will advise you if we feel a radiator flush, fluid replacement or any repairs are required to maintain the performance of your vehicle.

Even if it looks clean, your coolant still might need replacing!
