  • How long can I expect my car battery to last? You can usually get three to five years out of your car battery. However, battery type, how well you maintain your battery, and your driving habits can all affect your battery’s lifespan.
  • Why is there white, flaky stuff around my Suburban 2500’s battery post? If you notice white, crusty stuff around the battery terminals of your Suburban 2500, it's likely corrosion.

  • How do I remove corrosion from my Suburban 2500 car battery? To help extend the life of your battery, you should routinely inspect and clean the terminals using a baking soda and water mix, wire brush, and rag. Be sure to disconnect the battery cables before cleaning and check your Suburban 2500 owner’s manual for instructions on how to do so.
