Don’t get caught out with a flat battery when you go to start your vehicle.
The battery and electrical system are the heart of your car. The battery starts your engine and powers lights, wipers, windows and other accessories. If you can’t start your car, it could be your battery, your starter or the charging system.
Today’s vehicles require much more from the battery; they not only provide energy to the starting system but they are vital for on board systems & accessories.
Many vehicles now use Stop/Start technology to maximise engine fuel efficiency, increasing demand on battery performance.
At Midas, we provide a comprehensive car battery replacement service that involves testing your car battery’s health and the charge rate of the electrical system charging your battery; our technicians can quickly confirm if a starting problem is the battery or another component.
We use licenced environmental partners to ensure used batteries are recycled and hazardous materials are correctly disposed of.
When you choose Midas for your car battery replacement, you’ll walk away with peace of mind knowing that you’re covered under our National Guarantee.
Signs your car battery needs replacing
Car batteries are manufactured to last between three to seven years. Once your car battery drops below 12V – which often happens within this timeframe – it’s time to replace it. Here are some telltale signs that your battery is running critically low:
- Your car’s dashboard displays a warning light: This is often the first indication that your car battery is flat or running low. If the battery light appears when you start your vehicle, your battery may be running low.
- Your car battery won’t accept a charge: If you hear rapid clicks instead of your engine starting, and jump-starting doesn’t help, you may need a new car battery to get you back on the road.
- Your car battery can’t hold a charge: Jump-starting can be a band-aid fix for an underlying issue – a flat car battery. If your car needs to be jump-started repeatedly, you’re at greater risk of being stranded. Your car battery should be replaced as soon as possible.
- Your car battery displays low voltage on a voltmeter.
If you’re experiencing any of these issues, our car battery replacement service can diagnose and get to work straight away, so you’re not left stranded. Book online for a car battery replacement service today.

Depending on the climate and your driving patterns, most car batteries last between three to seven years. We recommend replacing your battery once its capacity has dropped below 12 volts – which happens to most batteries within this time period. If you’ve noticed that your battery is running low, contact the Midas team today.
Stop/Start batteries, also known as ‘idle stop and go batteries’, operate by turning off the engine automatically when your vehicle comes to a pause, such as at a red light. This helps conserve battery fuel so you’ll get the most life out of your car battery. With most vehicles already using Stop/Start technology, Midas can fit a car battery that keeps you on the road longer.
