A common question that you may wonder is if all car batteries are universal! The short answer to this question is no, but there is more to it! You need to keep in mind various factors and characteristics when choosing the correct car battery for your vehicle.

Different types of vehicles have varying sizes. Since car batteries are not all the same, how do you find which one fits your vehicle?

You have to consider the size, features, and more. There are starting, lighting, and ignition (SLI) batteries, lithium-ion batteries, wet-cell (or flooded) batteries, and lead-acid batteries. Selecting a suitable battery for your vehicle is essential. If you are not sure how to even begin, you can consult with a professional for advice.

With advancements in the automotive industry, you can see more cars on the road that rely heavily on their electronic systems. In fact, there are more electric-powered cars on the road now than ever before. The complicated features of the modern vehicle can only run smoothly if the car battery is functional.



TIPS ON PICKING A BATTERY FOR YOUR CAR

• Check out the recommendations from the vehicle manufacturer. We highly urge you to follow the manufacturer's suggestions on what type or model of battery is best for your vehicle. You can always go to the vehicle's owner's manual to get the relevant information on all your car's parts. 
• If you reside in a colder climate area, it would be ideal to select a battery that meets the standards of your surroundings. You want a battery that will last you through any harsh weather that you may face.

Lastly, it would help if you considered what you want to get out of your battery. Are there a lot of electrical components in your car? What are your driving habits? How much power do you need? All of these questions should be taken into thought when getting your car battery replaced. If you need vehicle battery replacement, please give Old School Automotive a call or visit today!
