Why won’t my XK8 battery hold a charge?

Stop by for a complimentary battery check at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care and get a handle on your car battery’s health.

What do you do with my old XK8 battery?

How much do DieHard batteries cost for your Jaguar XK8?

Jaguar XK8 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 often should I replace my car battery?

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 XK8’s battery post?

If you notice white, crusty stuff around the battery terminals of your XK8, 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 XK8’s electrical system, potentially leading to poor performance, difficulty starting, and other issues.

What do I do about corrosion on my XK8 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.
