Auto experts explained the nuances of installing a more powerful battery in a car

Installing a more powerful battery on the car will avoid difficulties with starting the engine at minus temperatures, but in some cases this solution can lead to problems. This was reported by experts of the dealer holding "AutoSpecCenter" on November 28.

According to experts, reported by "Rossiyskaya Gazeta", there is not enough free space under the hood of modern cars, which limits the possibility of operation of oversized batteries. At the same time, more powerful batteries may be incompatible with the "Start-Stop" system, which is available on modern cars.

In addition, if a larger battery is installed, the control system will not be able to fully function, which will reduce the efficiency of the battery. However, a higher capacity battery does not contribute to accelerated wear of the starter or alternator.

The day before, auto expert Alexander Smith dispelled myths about quickly rusting Chinese cars. According to him, modern cars of brands from China, contrary to a common misconception, do not rot in the first year and do not "blossom bugs" from a small chip.

On November 25, car service experts said that drivers of Chinese cars are most often concerned about failures of multimedia systems, touch screens, parktronic, radar, rearview cameras and climate control systems. There is also a gradual increase in the number of visits for oil changes, tire service and other minor repairs.
