    I did a quick search and had a look at the charter and i didnt see anything relating to this....

    Anyone know if they do a battery test service in Halfords? I was told by a friend from England before that they do but im not sure if that applies to Irish stores aswell.

    Any help would be well appreciated

    Cheers

    In the UK they have dedicated Ripspeed stores! Its a bit like Advance Pitstop but for mods to your car. Im sure this is where they can check your battery. The best thing to do is just call into Quick fit tyres centres and they should do it FOC.

    Can you really trust a battery test performed by a place that sells batteries?

    :rolleyes:

    Thats the same as saying can you trust the opinion of quick fit whether your tires/exhaust/brakes etc need replacing.Can you trust anyone about anything?

    we have a machine at work that tests the battery and gives a printout, we use it for warranty claims, I presume Halfords would have a similar one.
