  • Why won't my DL battery stay charged? A battery is in its final hour when it will no longer hold a charge. The battery may be too old. Or, you’ve been leaving the doors slightly open and the dome lights on during the night. Stop by for a free battery test at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care and learn more about your battery's charge.

  •  How much do DieHard batteries cost for your Subaru DL? You can find affordable DL batteries by using one of our car battery coupons, when available. Plus, every DieHard battery comes with extra coverage thanks to DieHard Assurance and a free replacement warranty.
  • What is the average lifespan of a 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, crusty buildup on my DL’s battery post? The white, crusty stuff that can accumulate around DL car battery terminals is called corrosion. It is caused by a chemical reaction between the battery acid and the air, which creates a white, powdery substance that can build up on the terminals over time. Corrosion can interfere with the flow of electricity between the battery post and the car's electrical system, sometimes leading to poor electrical performance, difficulty starting, and even premature battery failure.
  • How do I remove corrosion from my DL car battery? Regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals will help keep your DL’s electrical system running smoothly. Before cleaning, reference your owner’s manual for instructions on how to disconnect the battery cables. Once the cables have been disconnected, gently clean the terminals with a mixture of water and baking soda, a wire brush, and a rag.
