How it works

No towing. No workshop. Just this:

On site: 25 to 45 minutes

  1. Message us

    Send your model, year and location pin on WhatsApp. We confirm the right battery before we drive out.

  2. We drive over

    Nearest van heads to you. In Dubai that is usually 20 to 35 minutes. You get the technician's number.

  3. We test, then fit

    Battery, alternator and drain test first. Needs just a jump? That is all you pay for. Needs a battery? We fit it and keep your settings.

  4. We code and you pay

    New battery coded to your Audi. You see the readings, pay by card, cash or Tabby, we take the old one.

Which battery does your Audi need?

Got start-stop? You need AGM or EFB. A normal battery in there dies fast.

TypeFound inCopes with start-stopHeat toleranceNeeds coding
AGM Absorbent glass mat

Holds charge through restarts, heavy electrics and vibration. Standard on most Audis after 2012.

Found in A4, A5, A6, A7, A8, Q5, Q7, Q8, e-tron, S and RS
Copes with start-stop Yes, built for it
Heat tolerance Best of the three
Needs coding Yes
EFB Enhanced flooded battery

Toughened flooded battery for lighter start-stop duty. Found in smaller Audis. Can be upgraded to AGM.

Found in Some A1, A3, Q2 and Q3 versions
Copes with start-stop Yes, for lighter loads
Heat tolerance Good
Needs coding Yes
Standard Flooded lead-acid, maintenance-free

Old-style battery. Fine if your Audi has no start-stop — mostly pre-2010 cars. Never for a start-stop car.

Found in Older A3, A4, A6, TT without start-stop
Copes with start-stop No
Heat tolerance Fair
Needs coding On newer cars, yes
48V lithium-ion Mild-hybrid battery

Newer big Audis have a separate 48V pack for the hybrid system. You still have a 12V AGM — that is the one we replace.

Found in A6, A7, A8, Q7, Q8 mild hybrids
Copes with start-stop Part of the system
Heat tolerance Managed by the car
Needs coding Workshop job

Honest note: for warranty work on a new car, or a fault bigger than the battery, go to the dealer. We will tell you if that is you.

Why Audi batteries die early here

2 to 3 years is normal in the Gulf. Heat does it. Usual causes:

Read more
  • Heat

    Parked outside in July cooks the battery. Shaded basement parking lasts much longer.

  • Short trips, AC on full

    Ten-minute school runs with everything on take more than the alternator puts back.

  • Parked for weeks in summer

    Alarm, keyless entry, connected stuff — all sip power. Three weeks can flatten an old battery.

  • Wrong type fitted last time

    Normal battery in a start-stop Audi? Expect the warning back within months.

  • New battery never coded

    Car still thinks the old one is in. Charges wrong. Dies early.

  • Drain or charging fault

    Bad alternator, stuck module, cheap accessory. That is why we test before we sell.

Make the next one last

Can't change the weather. These help.

  • Park in shade

    A few degrees less under the bonnet slows it down.

  • One good drive a week

    30 minutes on the highway tops up short city trips.

  • Test before summer

    Check it in April or May, before the first 45-degree week.

  • Switch off before you stop

    AC and lights off before the engine. Don't sit with MMI on battery.

  • Going away?

    Away 3+ weeks? Get someone to drive it, or use a trickle charger.

  • Right type, coded

    AGM for AGM, EFB for EFB or AGM — coded the same day.

How fast can you replace an Audi battery in Dubai?

The nearest van usually reaches you in 20 to 35 minutes in Dubai, a little longer in outer Abu Dhabi and Sharjah. Fitting and coding take 25 to 45 minutes depending on where the battery sits in your model.

Does an Audi need battery coding after replacement?

Most Audis built from around 2008 do. The car's energy management has to be told a new battery is fitted, with its capacity and type. We do this on site with a diagnostic tool as part of the fitting.

Which battery does my Audi need, AGM or EFB?

If your Audi has start-stop, it needs AGM or EFB, and most larger models need AGM. We check by model, year and the label on the old battery, then fit the same technology or better.

Where is the battery in my Audi?

It depends on the model. A3, Q2 and Q3 carry it in the engine bay. A4, A5, A6, A7, A8 and Q5 usually have it under the boot floor. The first Q7 has it under a front seat. Our technician will know before arriving.

Can you come to a basement or tower car park?

Yes. Most of our Dubai jobs are in basements and podium car parks. The technician carries the battery and tools in by hand if the van cannot enter. Tell security a service visit is coming.

Do you cover Abu Dhabi and Sharjah?

Yes. We cover Dubai, Sharjah and Abu Dhabi city, including Khalifa City, Yas Island, Reem Island and Mussafah. Arrival times outside central areas are confirmed when you message.

What warranty do I get?

Up to 24 months, depending on the battery brand and type you choose. The warranty is recorded against your car and sent to you on WhatsApp, and a claim is handled at your location.

How can I pay?

Card or cash once the job is done, or split the cost into four payments with Tabby or Tamara. There is no charge for delivery, fitting or coding when you buy the battery from us.

What if the battery is not the problem?

Then we do not sell you one. The test covers the battery, alternator and starter draw. If the fault is elsewhere, we tell you what we found and can arrange recovery to a workshop.

Do electric Audis like the e-tron need a 12V battery?

Yes. Every e-tron and plug-in hybrid has a 12V battery that powers the locks, screens and control units. When it fails the car will not switch on even with a full high-voltage battery. We replace those too.
