  • How much will replacing my BMW Z3’s battery cost if I get a DieHard battery? BMW Z3 batteries can be affordable, especially when there's an available battery coupon. The best part is every DieHard battery comes with a free replacement warranty and extra coverage with DieHard Assurance.
  •  How long do car batteries last? A car battery normally lasts three to five years, but this number can vary based on battery type, your driving habits, and battery maintenance.
  • What is the white, crusty stuff around my Z3’s battery post? If you notice white, crusty stuff around the battery terminals of your Z3, it's likely corrosion. A chemical reaction between battery acid and the air can create a white, powdery substance that builds up over time on the terminals. This buildup can interfere with the electrical connection between the battery and your Z3’s electrical system, potentially leading to poor performance, difficulty starting, and other issues.
  • How do I remove corrosion from my Z3 car battery? Regularly inspect the terminals and clean them with a mixture of baking soda and water, a wire brush, and a rag. Disconnect the battery cables before cleaning to help avoid the risk of electrical shock. Always reference and follow the instructions in your vehicle owner’s manual prior to disconnecting the battery cables.
