Answers to Your Beetle Car Battery Questions

Get answers to common car battery questions, from Firestone Complete Auto Care. If you have a Beetle-specific battery question, pay us a visit. Our expert techs have the answers you need.

  • Why won’t my Beetle battery hold a charge? A car battery that needs to be jump-started every time is as good as dead. The battery might be old. Or, you may have a habit of leaving your car doors open and the cabin light at night. Stop by for a complimentary battery check at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care and learn more about your battery's charge.
  • What do you do with my dead Beetle battery? We recycle it, taking care of both your car and the Earth.
  • How much will replacing my Volkswagen Beetle’s battery cost if I get a DieHard battery? You can find affordable Beetle 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.
  • 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.
  • Why is there white, flaky stuff around my Beetle’s battery post? The white, crusty stuff that can accumulate around Beetle 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 clean corrosion off my Beetle vehicle battery? You can help prevent or get rid of corrosion by regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals. Before cleaning your battery, see your Beetle 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.
