  • Why won’t my 98 battery hold a charge? A battery that won't hold a charge is almost as good as dead. The battery may be too old. Or, you may have been leaving your car doors ajar and the lights on overnight. 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 98 battery? We recycle it, taking care of both your car and the Earth.
  • How much will replacing my Oldsmobile 98’s battery cost if I get a DieHard battery? Oldsmobile 98 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? The typical 12-volt car battery may last three to five years, depending on the type of battery, the driving conditions, and how well the battery is maintained.
  • Why is there white, flaky stuff around my 98’s battery post? If you notice white, crusty stuff around the battery terminals of your 98, 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 98’s electrical system, potentially leading to poor performance, difficulty starting, and other issues.
  •  How do I clean corrosion off my 98 vehicle 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 98 owner’s manual for instructions on how to do so.
