A Comprehensive Guide by Range Auto & Fuel Injection Centre in Maleny

As the temperature drops, it's crucial for car owners to ensure their vehicle is prepared for the colder months ahead. At Range Auto & Fuel Injection Centre in Maleny, we understand how cold temperatures can significantly impact the performance and reliability of your car battery. This is why we emphasise the importance of pre-winter car battery checks to all our customers.

Cold temperatures can drastically affect your car battery in several ways. Firstly, the chemical reactions required to generate power in a car battery slow down in colder weather, leading to decreased battery capacity. Additionally, your vehicle’s engine requires more current from the battery to start in cold weather, putting extra strain on it. Over time, this can lead to significant wear and tear, especially in batteries that are already nearing the end of their life expectancy.

The Impact of Cold Temperatures on Car Batteries

To avoid being left in the cold, it's wise to have your car battery inspected before winter sets in. At Range Auto & Fuel Injection Centre in Maleny, we offer a comprehensive pre-winter battery check, focusing on the following aspects:

Pre-Winter Battery Checks at Range Auto & Fuel Injection Centre 

Battery Health: We assess the overall condition of the battery, checking for any signs of wear or damage.

Charge and Load Test: Our technicians perform a detailed test to measure the battery’s ability to hold a charge and to evaluate its overall performance under load conditions.

Battery Connections and Terminals: We inspect and clean the battery terminals and connections, ensuring there is no corrosion or loose connections that could impede electrical flow.

Battery Fluid Levels: Where applicable, we check the battery fluid levels, topping up as necessary to ensure optimal performance.

Without proper pre-winter checks, car owners might face several battery-related issues, including:

Failure to Start: The most common issue where the battery doesn’t have enough power to start the engine in cold conditions.

Weak Cranking: Experiencing slow or sluggish engine cranking can indicate a battery struggling in cold weather.

Random Electrical Problems: Low battery performance can lead to issues with your vehicle's electrical systems, such as dim lights or malfunctioning accessories.

Total Battery Failure: In the worst-case scenario, a battery can fail entirely, requiring a replacement at an inconvenient time.

To prevent these issues and ensure your vehicle remains reliable throughout the winter, Range Auto & Fuel Injection Centre offers Free Driveway Battery Testing during business hours. We recommend taking advantage of this service, as it's an easy way to avoid unexpected inconveniences and potentially costly repairs. Additionally, with every full car service at our centre, batteries are thoroughly checked and tested each time, giving you peace of mind about your vehicle's readiness for the cold season.

Prepare Your Car Battery for Winter - Essential Tips & Tricks

Your vehicle has a number of different filters and each one works in a different system in your car. Range Auto & Fuel Injection Centre knows those systems inside and out. For servicing in Maleny and surrounding suburbs you can count on us.

Quite simply- a filter traps particles which should not be present in, or could do damage to, the system which it filters. Therefore all filters have a lifespan - once they get congested with the particles they are filtering - replacement is a must. Not replacing filters in your car when they need to be changed can lead to expensive breakdowns in some very important parts of your vehicle.

Oil Filter: Cleans the oil and allows it to flow through the engine better
Air Filter: Traps dirt particles which could damage cylinders, walls and pistons
Cabin Air Filter: Keeps pollen, dust and bacteria out of the ventilation system
Fuel Filter: Filters harmful contaminants which could do damage to carburettors or fuel injectors

Types of Filters in your vehicle include:

At Range Auto & Fuel Injection Centre we provide a full 65 point vehicle inspection report upon request with every full car service. This includes a check of your cars filters to help avoid expensive breakdowns in the future.
