  • How often should I replace my car battery? 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 MX-5 Miata’s battery post? If you notice white, crusty stuff around the battery terminals of your MX-5 Miata, 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 MX-5 Miata’s electrical system, potentially leading to poor performance, difficulty starting, and other issues.
  • How do I remove corrosion from my MX-5 Miata car battery? You can help prevent or get rid of corrosion by regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals. Before cleaning your battery, see your MX-5 Miata owner's manual to learn how to disconnect the battery cables. After disconnecting the cables, use a mixture of water and baking soda, a wire brush, and a rag to carefully clean the terminals.
