Batteries

Your INFINITI battery is one of the most crucial components of your vehicle. It provides the power needed to start your car, as well as run other electronic elements, like your lights. However, it wears and may need to be swapped out for a new one after about four to five years. To understand the warning signs that you need INFINITI battery replacement and how to take care of your system, read on.

When Should You Consider INFINITI Car Battery Service?


Will your engine not crank? Will it crank but, ultimately, not start? These can be some of the more blatant indications of a problem. To address the issue before it gets to that stage, take a look at your battery periodically. Corrosion around the terminals can prevent it from working correctly, while a strange smell or a distorted-looking case can indicate a leak that needs checking out ASAP.

How To Look After Your Car Battery


To extend your battery's life span as much as possible, you'll need to charge your battery frequently. How do you do that? You go for regular drives, preferably longer than 15 minutes. You should also avoid using electronics when your car is idling and make sure all the lights are extinguished when the vehicle is off to avoid draining the battery unnecessarily.

Lastly, taking your car to our service department for other essential maintenance is crucial. Not only do regular oil changes save your engine from overheating and dangerous friction, but our professionals can also give the rest of your car a look-over and tackle problems before they can worsen. If you do need a new battery, make sure to ask our staff about its INFINITI battery warranty, which will help protect your investment in the future. If your current battery issues fall under the purview of an existing INFINITI warranty, we can easily apply this as well.

Frequently Asked Questions


How long does an INFINITI battery last?

An INFINITI battery typically works well for four to five years before it needs a replacement. However, outside factors can shorten or extend its life span. For example, leaving your car undriven for long periods can negatively impact the battery because it doesn't allow it an opportunity to charge. Alternatively, you may stave off corrosion on your battery's terminals with special washers or formulas. Talk to our team for details.

What kind of batteries does INFINITI use?

This answer will depend on what model of INFINITI vehicle you drive. Not only do larger vehicles, like SUVs, typically need larger batteries than sedans, but if you have an INFINITI Q50 Hybrid, this system actually contains two batteries to provide different voltage levels. Your owner's manual should provide you with specific details, or you can call our service department and ask about your specific model.

How do I change the battery on an INFINITI?

While there are step-by-step Youtube videos that can walk you through this process, you risk significantly damaging your car if you don't have professional training. Furthermore, the process often involves buying new tools, meaning it can cost you more to go the DIY route. If you have a specific question, our team can help, but consider having us perform this service for you quickly and efficiently.
