What's included on a car jumpstart in Dudley
- Non-invasive jumpstart from a lithium pack — no jump leads clamped to your terminals under bonnet pressure
- Voltage checked before and after — we know within 30 seconds if the battery will hold charge or if it's terminal
- Alternator output measured at idle and at load so you know if a 20-minute drive will actually refill the battery

- Battery registration via OBD for BMW, Audi, VW, Mercedes, Ford, Vauxhall and Peugeot/Citroen where required
- Honest advice — if it's actually the starter motor, alternator or a parasitic drain, we tell you straight

Car Jumpstart — common questions
Q.Can you help if my key fob won't unlock the car?
Yes — that's usually the key battery, not the car. We carry common CR2032/CR2450 cells and can jumpstart via a physical key or the OBD port if needed.
Q.How long should I drive after a jumpstart?
Ideally 30–45 minutes of continuous driving, not stop-start town use. But if the battery is old and the alternator can't get it above 12.6V at rest, it'll go flat again in days.
Q.Will jumpstarting damage my car's electronics?
Not with a proper lithium pack. The old risk with jump leads and a running donor car was voltage spikes — modern lithium packs are regulated and safe on any car including hybrids.
Q.Do you work on hybrids and mild-hybrids?
Yes — a hybrid still has a 12V auxiliary battery that starts everything. Toyota, Lexus, Honda and MHEV Ford/Vauxhall are all fine.
General questions
Q.Do you take the old battery away?
Yes — proper lead-acid recycling included with every fit, no extra charge, no landfill.
Q.Do you code new batteries to the vehicle?
Yes, wherever the manufacturer requires it — BMW, Audi, VW, Mercedes, Ford, Vauxhall, Peugeot/Citroen. OBD-level coding included with every fit that needs it.
Q.Do you cover the whole West Midlands?
Yes — Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Dudley, Sandwell, Walsall, Solihull and everywhere between, plus surrounding Staffordshire and Worcestershire routinely.
