Expert Care Is Necessary For The Batteries Of Peugeot 3008 1.6 Hdi For Sale


The buyer of Peugeot 3008 1.6 HDI for sale should know that the battery of the car is usually placed in the engine compartment, hidden by a plastic coating or other components, or sometimes in the passenger compartment of the car, often under the seat. In these cases, even the classic battery maintenance needs proper care with expert attention.

The Electrolyte Level

The latest generation batteries are sealed and covered with adhesives or other plastic materials, in many cases, the battery is equipped with the so-called " magic eye"A peephole capable of detecting the accumulator charge level in broad lines. Usually, the magic eye has three colors: the green indicates an optimal state of charge, the black indicates that the battery has now reached 50% of charge while the white color indicates that there is need to replace the battery. In the car, the battery is located in the engine compartment, it is well evident and has six caps on the top. From the caps, it will be possible to check the electrolyte level and eventually top it up. These batteries are lead (or lead-acid), composed of six cells in series that contain the elements immersed in the electrolyte, a liquid given by a part of sulfuric acid and another part of distilled water. 

To Conclude Better Decision

When the car battery is to end, it is possible to regenerate it using special cables. In this context, the first notion to keep in mind is the difference between the positive and the negative pole. The positive pole is characterized by the color red, a plus symbol (+) and has a slightly larger size than that of the negative pole. During the Peugeot 3008 1.6 HDI review, a buyer should heed that. Besides, on the contrary, the negative terminal has a black, blue or green color, moreover, the symbol that distinguishes it is the minus (-) and the dimensions are slightly lower than those of the positive terminal. So, before pay the used Peugeot 3008 1.6 HDI price, the discussed aspect should help to conclude better decision.

The Level of Water

If your car is equipped with an old generation battery and the alternator is having a bad time giving you the energy you need, you can use the cables by connecting them to another car's battery, respecting the polarity (depending on the color of the cable!). The car that lends you energy must have the engine running. To try to regenerate a lead-acid battery, if the battery is new but empty, it will need to be recharged with a special charger. The cost of the charger is reasonable and its dimensions are slightly larger than those of a classic mobile phone charger. After many recharge cycles, the levels of demineralized water will have to be restored with the addition and also the sulfuric acid will have to be added to buffer the signs of wear. In this way, the battery does not regenerate itself but at least its life span increases.
