Stopped at the roadside in Streetly? Priority battery replacement with hazard-aware working near A38 Bassetts Pole. 24/7 dispatch from Oldbury.
Roads around Streetly carry heavy commuter flow, and a stalled vehicle in the wrong lane creates risk for everyone. That is why these callouts are dispatched differently.
If your battery in Streetly 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.
Stock on the van covers every popular fitment: standard flooded 063/096/075/100, EFB start-stop, and AGM 019/017 for premium and stop-start applications.
How we work safely in traffic

Roadside emergency questions
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.
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.I'm on a live carriageway — what should I do first?
Get everyone out on the nearside and behind a barrier if it is safe, hazards on, and call the emergency services if you are on a motorway. Then call us.
Q.How fast can you reach a roadside job in Streetly?
Roadside calls are prioritised. From our Oldbury base most Streetly jobs are reached inside the hour, faster off-peak via A38 Bassetts Pole.
Q.Will you tow me if it won't start?
We are a mobile battery and starting specialist, not a recovery operator. If the fault is beyond a battery we tell you straight away so recovery can be arranged without wasted time.
Q.Do you cover Streetly and the B74 area for this?
Yes. Streetly is inside our routine coverage from Oldbury via A38 Bassetts Pole, roughly 3 miles from Sutton Coldfield. We cover it alongside Sutton Coldfield and the surrounding streets.
Why this is safe to book
- Honest escalation — if it needs recovery, you hear it in the first five minutes, not the fortieth.
- Fully insured for work on driveways, business premises and private car parks across Birmingham City Council.
