4x4, Ute & SUV Battery Replacement in Auckland
Batteries for the Ford Ranger, Toyota Hilux, Land Cruiser and every other ute, 4x4 and SUV.
Supplied and fitted at your home, work site or our Avondale workshop, where fitting is free.
Why utes and 4x4s are hard on batteries
- Diesel engines need more cranking power to start, especially on cold mornings
- Spotlights, fridges, winches and trailer brakes draw extra power
- Short trips and long idling stop the battery from fully recharging
- Heat, dust and rough roads add vibration and wear
- Newer models with start-stop need an AGM or EFB battery
That's why the right battery matters. We match yours by rego, so you get the right size, starting power (CCA) and type for your vehicle.
Ford Ranger and Toyota Hilux
Ford Ranger battery replacement
The Ranger is one of New Zealand's best-selling utes, and one of the vehicles we fit batteries to most.
- Most current Rangers we fit (XL, XLS, XLT, Sport and Wildtrak) take an AGM battery
- Newer Rangers have a battery monitoring system that should be reset after a new battery goes in. We do this as part of the fitting
- The right battery depends on year and engine, so enter your rego for the exact fit
Toyota Hilux battery replacement
The Hilux works hard on farms, building sites and weekend trips, and needs a battery with plenty of starting power.
- Batteries for petrol and diesel Hilux models, old and new
- Some diesel Land Cruiser models run two batteries, and we check both when we fit
- Enter your rego to see every battery that fits your Hilux, with price and warranty
