Dependable Diagnostics, Fast Replacements, and Honest Advice

A dead battery can bring your day to a standstill. Whether you're headed to work, picking up family, or simply trying to start your engine, a battery failure is never convenient. At A&R Auto and Emissions in Conyers, GA, we offer fast and accurate battery services to keep your vehicle dependable and your day on track.

From routine testing to full replacements, our team ensures your car battery is delivering the power your engine and electrical systems require. We specialize in clear communication, reliable diagnostics, and quality parts—backed by the kind of straightforward service you can count on.

Why Your Car Battery Matters

Your vehicle’s battery does more than start the engine. It powers your lights, radio, air conditioning, power seats, and onboard computers. It also provides energy when the alternator isn’t producing enough current, particularly during idling or stop-and-go driving.

When your battery begins to fail, you may notice:

• A slow or hesitant engine start
• Dim headlights, especially when the engine is off
• Electrical accessories malfunctioning or resetting
• Clicking noise when turning the key
• Warning lights on the dashboard
• Corroded battery terminals or a bloated battery case
• The need for frequent jump-starts

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, your battery may be on its last charge. Timely diagnostics can prevent a total failure and keep you from getting stranded.

What Our Battery Service Includes

At A&R Auto and Emissions, our battery service goes beyond simply checking voltage. We conduct a full assessment of your charging system and electrical health to ensure all components are functioning properly.

Our battery service includes:

• Battery voltage test using professional-grade diagnostic tools
• Cold-cranking amp (CCA) test to assess your battery’s starting power
• Visual inspection for corrosion, swelling, or damaged terminals
• Alternator performance check to verify that your vehicle is recharging the battery properly
• Starter evaluation to identify power draw issues
• Load testing to simulate real-life performance under stress
• Professional installation of a new battery, if needed, with all connections cleaned and secured

We carry high-quality replacement batteries that meet or exceed manufacturer standards. If a replacement is necessary, we’ll help you select the right battery for your vehicle’s make, model, and electrical demands.

How Long Should a Car Battery Last?

Most automotive batteries last between three and five years. However, the actual lifespan can vary significantly based on:

• Driving habits (short trips may not allow the battery to fully recharge)
• Extreme temperatures (hot or cold weather accelerates battery wear)
• Electrical system health (a failing alternator or parasitic drain reduces battery life)
• Battery type and quality
• Frequency of use (vehicles left unused for long periods may experience faster battery discharge)

If your battery is over three years old, or if you’ve noticed changes in your vehicle’s electrical performance, it’s a good idea to schedule a battery check.

Professional Diagnosis You Can Trust

What sets our team apart is our focus on accuracy and transparency. We don’t guess—and we don’t replace batteries unless it’s truly necessary. Many electrical problems can appear to be battery-related but are actually linked to other components, such as the alternator, voltage regulator, or wiring.

Our experienced technicians perform full charging system diagnostics to pinpoint the real issue before recommending a solution. You’ll get clear explanations and straightforward advice, so you know exactly what needs to be done and why.

Preventing Future Battery Problems

One of the best ways to avoid unexpected battery failure is through regular inspections during routine maintenance. We recommend having your battery checked at least twice a year, especially before the hot summer months or freezing winter temperatures.

Here are a few additional tips to extend the life of your battery:

• Drive regularly and for at least 15 to 20 minutes at a time
• Turn off headlights and interior lights when exiting the vehicle
• Avoid using electronic accessories when the engine is off
• Keep battery terminals clean and free of corrosion
• Secure your battery properly to reduce vibration damage

Our technicians can check your battery during any routine service, including oil changes, fluid flushes, and diagnostics.

Battery Recycling and Eco-Friendly Practices

If we replace your battery, we’ll also make sure the old one is recycled safely and in accordance with environmental standards. Automotive batteries contain heavy metals and should never be disposed of in regular trash. We partner with local recycling services to ensure every battery is handled responsibly.
