Your Trusted Garage for Car Battery Services in Lincoln

Is your car struggling to start, or are you worried about your battery’s health? At Andrews Car Centre in Lincoln, we offer free battery health checks to help you stay on the road without worrying about breakdowns.

A healthy car battery is essential for reliable performance — and we're here to make sure yours is in top condition. Here's everything you need to know about how our free battery checks work and why you should take advantage of them.


🧰 Why Should You Get a Free Battery Health Check?

Regular checks are crucial for avoiding unexpected battery failure, which could leave you stranded. A failing battery can be especially problematic during colder months, where temperature changes can put additional stress on your car's electrical system.

Here’s why a battery health check can save you time and money:

⚑ Catch Problems Early

Our free battery health check identifies issues before they become serious problems. If your battery is nearing the end of its lifespan or has a reduced charge, we'll spot it and offer guidance on whether it needs replacing.

πŸš— Avoid Unnecessary Breakdowns

A failing battery often leads to slow starting, flickering lights, or electrical issues. With our health check, we’ll test your battery’s charge, capacity, and voltage — and ensure your car starts when you need it most.

πŸ’° Save Money on Replacements

Replacing a car battery can be expensive. But early intervention can save you from the higher cost of emergency battery replacements or other related repairs. Our experts will give you an honest assessment of whether a replacement is needed now or if your battery still has life left.


πŸ”§ What’s Included in Our Free Battery Health Check?

When you bring your car into Andrews Car Centre, we’ll perform a comprehensive battery health check that includes:

1. Battery Charge Test

We’ll measure your battery’s current charge to see if it’s holding power effectively. If the charge is low, we’ll help you decide the best course of action.

2. Voltage Check

A fully charged battery should provide around 12.6 volts. If your battery is reading significantly lower, it may be time for a replacement.

3. Health Evaluation

We’ll check the overall condition of the battery, including corrosion around terminals and any physical damage that might reduce performance.

4. Alternator Check

Sometimes, a battery issue can be linked to the alternator. We’ll also check if your alternator is charging the battery properly.

5. Advice & Recommendations

After the check, we’ll provide you with an honest recommendation — if your battery is good for now or if it needs replacing. We’ll explain the best options, so you’re never left with any surprises.


🚨 Warning Signs Your Car Battery Might Need Replacing

Even if you haven’t had a chance to book a check yet, here are some common signs your car battery may be on its way out:

  • Slow Starting: If your car struggles to start or takes longer than usual to turn over.

  • Dimming Headlights: If your headlights appear weaker or flicker, your battery might not be charging properly.

  • Check Engine Light: Sometimes a weak battery will trigger the check engine light to illuminate.

  • Swollen Battery Case: Extreme temperatures (cold or hot) can cause a battery to swell, indicating it's time for a replacement.

  • Electrical Issues: If your car's electrical system, like radio or dashboard lights, behaves erratically, the battery could be at fault.
