Why workplace car parks generate calls
Walsgrave's automotive R&D and higher education employers run large staff car parks where vehicles sit unmoved for ten or twelve hours at a stretch.
Locally that means the streets between Walsgrave and Coventry, with access via M6 J2/J3 and M69 and a practical radius reaching Coventry (~3 mi) and Nuneaton (~9 mi).
Access, timing and payment
- Work is carried out in the bay with portable equipment, so vehicles do not need moving or towing.
- Site access requirements, permits and barrier arrangements are agreed on the phone before dispatch.
- Memory saver used during change so radio codes, seat memories and ECU adaptations are preserved
- Battery Replacement work here is judged against the vehicle's own specification rather than a generic pass mark.
We'll come to the car park
Barrier and permit arrangements sorted on the phone, work done in the bay, no towing. Battery Replacement covers post-war estates and hospital-related flats and trade vehicles alike, all from the same van.

Workplace callout questions
Q.Can the employer pay rather than the employee?
Yes. Tell us at booking and we invoice the business rather than taking a card at the vehicle.
Q.Do you need a site induction?
For most car parks, no. For secure or industrial sites we will follow whatever access process you have — just tell us in advance.
Q.Can you attend at shift changeover?
Yes, including evening and overnight handovers. That is when most of these calls come in.
Q.Do you cover Walsgrave and the CV2 area for this?
Yes. Walsgrave is inside our routine coverage from Oldbury via M6 J2/J3, roughly 3 miles from Coventry. We cover it alongside Coventry 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.What's the difference between AGM and EFB?
AGM is a fully sealed absorbed-glass-mat battery for premium and stop-start; EFB is an enhanced flooded battery for entry-level stop-start. Fitting the wrong one is a warranty-void job.

The short version
A dead car at the end of a shift is a small problem that becomes a big one if it is left for hours. On-site attendance across Walsgrave keeps it small. For battery replacement specifically, that means correct chemistry every time: flooded / efb / agm matched to what the manufacturer specified
