  • Why won't my Passat battery stay charged? A battery is in its final hour when it will no longer hold a charge. The battery may be too old.

Stop by for a complimentary battery check at your favorite Firestone Complete Auto Care and learn more about your battery's charge.

  • How much will replacing my Volkswagen Passat’s battery cost if I get a DieHard battery? Volkswagen Passat 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 can I expect my car battery to 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, crusty buildup on my Passat’s battery post? The white, crusty stuff that can accumulate around Passat 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 Passat car 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 Passat owner’s manual for instructions on how to do so.
