Battery lookup tool is now an essential, claims expert

Battery brand, Yuasa is recommending workshops refer to its industry online trade lookup tool to avoid serious issues caused by incorrect battery application.

Battery replacement is no longer a simple task, the brand warns.

Fitting the wrong one to a vehicle can lead to damaging consequences, usually resulting in breakdown and a very short battery service life.

Most new models use next generation start-stop technology and are produced with a vast array of specification options.

Many will have additional auxiliary batteries to accompany the main starter unit.
