How Often Should the Battery of a Volkswagen Golf Be Replaced?
1 Answers
The battery of a Volkswagen Golf 7 generally needs to be replaced every three to four years. With proper care, it can last five to six years. Battery usage tips: 1. When driving, the lights are used most frequently. Additionally, some drivers enjoy playing music while driving, which increases battery consumption to some extent. Therefore, before parking and turning off the engine, always remember to turn off the lights and audio system. Leaving them on for extended periods will significantly increase the battery's load, which is detrimental to its lifespan. 2. Develop the good habit of turning off the air conditioning before shutting down the engine. Compared to other power-consuming devices like lights, audio systems, and cigarette lighters, the air conditioning consumes much more power, especially during winter and summer when it is used most frequently. However, many drivers have the bad habit of not turning off the air conditioning before shutting down the engine. If this happens, the air conditioning will automatically start running the next time the car is started, causing a sudden high power load on the battery. Over time, this can cause significant damage to the battery. 3. Avoid long-term parking. In daily life, do not leave the car unused for extended periods. A car that is not driven for a long time will gradually lose battery charge, which may result in difficulty starting the car when needed.
