Car Batteries

My car won’t start, what should I do?

If your car won’t start, it’s probably because you have a flat battery. This could be due to several factors such as leaving your lights on, not driving your car enough, faulty electrics, or it could be that the battery itself is faulty and unable to hold its charge.

The first thing you should do is try and jumpstart your car – there will be instructions on how to do this in your vehicle handbook. If you don’t have access to another vehicle or jump leads, or if your car still won’t start, give the team at Keith Elgin Motor Engineers a call. Our experienced team can conduct a battery check to determine if your battery needs replacing. If you do need a new battery, our technicians can advise you on the best options. We stock a range of competitively priced, quality batteries at our workshop in Edinburgh, to suit all vehicle makes and models.

We happily adhere to their strict code of conduct and work hard to ensure that our customers leave our garage no less than 100% satisfied with the work and the customer service that they have received.
