A Porsche needs an AGM battery of the exact specification, or a like-for-like lithium unit on recent cars built with one, and the new battery must be registered to the car with a diagnostic tool. AGM replacement and registration can be done where the car is parked in JBR. Lithium units usually go through the dealer.
Where the battery lives depends on the Porsche. On the 911, Boxster, Cayman and 718 it is in the front luggage compartment under a plastic cover. On the Macan it is under the luggage floor at the back. Earlier Cayenne generations carry it under the driver's seat, which makes for a longer job. Most cars use an AGM battery. Some recent models leave the factory with a 12V lithium starter battery, which cannot simply be swapped for a lead-acid one.
Porsche's energy management tracks the battery's age and capacity. A new battery has to be registered with a diagnostic tool, otherwise the car keeps charging it like the old one and can go on showing a battery warning. A memory saver protects the settings during the change. Porsches driven only at weekends lose charge while parked, and a flat battery can leave the front lid locked. On the 911 and 718 an emergency terminal in the fuse box deals with exactly that.

From first message to driving away usually takes under an hour.
Tell us the car's make, model and year, and where it's parked. Tower name and parking level save time.
We send the batteries that fit your car and the total for each, before anyone sets off.
Inside JBR that's usually 20 to 35 minutes. The old battery is tested first, so you only replace it if it has failed.
New battery in, terminals cleaned, charging system checked. Pay by cash, card, Tabby or Tamara.
Replace like with like. Fitting a lower-grade type than the car was built with is the most common reason a new battery fails early.

Our technicians are based in JBR, so the towers along The Walk, the beach parking and the Marina side are the quickest to reach. The circle shows roughly 5 km from our base.
The same number gets you a mechanic, a recovery truck or an AC technician. Small jobs are done where the car is parked.

Car was dead on P2 after three weeks away. Sent the tower and bay number on WhatsApp and the technician was at the car in about 25 minutes. He tested it first and showed me the printout before changing anything.

The dealership quoted me three days. These guys fitted an AGM battery in my building's basement the same evening and registered it to the car. Start-stop works again.

Honest. I was sure I needed a new battery. He jump started it, checked the alternator and told me the battery still had life in it, just drive it more. Didn't try to sell me anything.

Friday night on The Walk so it took closer to 40 minutes than 30, but they called to say so. Battery is in the boot on mine and he knew exactly where to go. Paid with Tabby.

Called at 1am after a flight. Someone answered straight away and the car was running before 2. Warranty written on the invoice, old battery taken away.

Clear about the options. Three brands that fit my car, what each one cost and how long the warranty was, all on WhatsApp before he set off. No surprises when he arrived.

Second time I've used them, different car. Same result: on time, clean job, terminals cleaned without me asking. I've saved the number.

Security at my cluster can be difficult with outside contractors. They told me exactly what to say to the gate and it went smoothly. Battery changed in twenty minutes.

Follow the handbook for your exact model. Lithium starter batteries have their own electronics and can shut themselves down when deeply discharged. A careful boost through the car's jump points sometimes wakes them. If it does not, the battery needs dealer equipment. We test first and tell you plainly which case it is.
The car still starts, but the energy management goes on treating the battery as old. It may charge it incorrectly, keep some comfort functions switched off and show a battery warning. Registration tells the car the new battery's capacity and type so it charges it properly.
Usually 20 to 35 minutes anywhere inside JBR, a little longer when The Walk loop is jammed on a weekend evening. You get a realistic arrival time when you message, and a call if it changes.
Yes. Tower basements, podium parking, hotel valet areas, beach parking and the roadside are all fine. We need the bonnet to open and about a metre of space in front of or beside the car.
We test before selling anything. If the battery is healthy but drained, a jump start and a proper drive will do. If the test shows it can no longer hold charge or deliver cranking power, it needs replacing.
Varta, Bosch, Amaron, ACDelco, Exide, Energizer, Duracell, Solite, Sebang, Panasonic, FIAMM, Tudor, Hyundai Mobis and Camel. We match the size, terminal layout and technology to your car first, then you choose the brand.
Message us the make, model and where it's parked. You'll have a price and an arrival time in a few minutes.
