Commonly Asked GTI Battery Questions

Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for answers to all your car battery questions. If you have a battery question that's unique to your Volkswagen GTI battery, pay us a visit. Our technicians have the answers.

  • Why doesn’t my GTI battery stay charged? A battery that won't hold a charge is almost as good as dead. The battery might be old. Or, you may have a habit of leaving your car doors open and the dome lights on during the night. Stop in for a free battery check at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care and learn more about your battery's charge.
  • What happens to my old GTI battery? We recycle it! Nearly 100% of all lead-acid batteries are recyclable.
  • How much will replacing my Volkswagen GTI’s battery cost if I get a DieHard battery? Get affordable prices on Volkswagen GTI batteries by using one of our limited-time battery deals. Plus, all DieHard car batteries come with a free replacement warranty and extra coverage with DieHard Assurance.
  • How long is a car battery good for? 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 GTI’s battery post? The white, flaky stuff that can build up around your GTI’s battery terminals is known as corrosion. Acid leaking from your vehicle’s battery post can have a chemical reaction with the air, leading to an accumulation of the white, powdery substance over time. Corrosion can affect the flow of electricity between your battery and the electrical system in your GTI, possibly causing issues with electrical performance and starting. If left unaddressed for long enough, it may even cause your battery to prematurely fail.
  •  How do I clean corrosion off my GTI 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 GTI owner’s manual for instructions on how to do so.
