Need a car battery replacement? Brisbane motorists turn to the experts

It’s that heart-sinking moment when you turn the key and nothing happens. The battery is kaput, and you’re going nowhere fast. Best case scenario, you can give it a jump start and get on with your day. You’ll need jumper leads, a second car to pull energy from, or a portable jump starter pack. If you don’t have access to these, call up mycar Roadside Assistance and we’ll send someone to your location.

Whether it’s on the side of the road or later at a mycar service centre, checking up on the health of the battery is vital to ensuring you don’t run into the same trouble again. Your mycar mechanic will see if the electrolyte levels (the watery fluid inside the battery) need topping up; they will also check for damaged cables and corrosion on the terminals. Finally, they will take a look at the alternator — when it’s on its way out, it can take the battery down with it.

We source our car batteries from Aussie-owned manufacturer Century Batteries, so you know you’re getting a battery that will really go the distance. Wondering about car battery prices in Brisbane? At mycar, our battery replacement service starts at $129, inclusive of labour and disposal of the old battery. Chat to your local mechanic about exact costs for your car.
