  • What do you do with my dead 244 battery? We recycle it, taking care of both your car and the Earth.
  • What’s the cost of DieHard batteries for Volvo 244s? Volvo 244 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 often should I replace my car battery? 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 244’s battery post? If you notice white, crusty stuff around the battery terminals of your 244, 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 244’s electrical system, potentially leading to poor performance, difficulty starting, and other issues.
  • What do I do about corrosion on my 244 car battery? Regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals will help keep your 244’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.
