If your battery in Kings Heath is more than 4 years old and keeps going flat, you're past jumpstart territory — you need a proper replacement, fitted and coded on your driveway.

Response time questions
Q.What is a realistic ETA for Kings Heath?
Typically 45–60 minutes in normal traffic, quicker off-peak, longer if we are mid-job when you call. You get an honest figure on the phone.
Q.Is there a fee for a faster response?
No priority surcharge. Emergency and roadside jobs are prioritised by risk, not by payment.
Q.Do you carry batteries or come back later?
Stock is on the van, covering standard flooded, EFB and AGM in the common sizes, so most jobs complete on the first visit.
Q.Do you cover Kings Heath and the B14 area for this?
Yes. Kings Heath is inside our routine coverage from Oldbury via M6 J6 (Spaghetti Junction), roughly 4 miles from Birmingham. We cover it alongside Birmingham and the surrounding streets.
Q.Do I really need OBD coding when the new battery goes in?
On post-2012 BMW, Audi, VW, Ford, Vauxhall, Peugeot and Citroen — yes. Without coding, the alternator will overcharge the new battery and kill it in under a year.
Q.Will I lose my radio code and seat memory?
No — we use a 12V memory saver on the OBD port during the swap, so all adaptations and settings are preserved.
