Battery For My Gs300

[Speedy Duck]

Morning Guys

I do not have cause to request assistance and advice for my fantastic 02 GS300 very often. Admittedly I do not have a high annual mileage. When I do drive it, it is a joy.

The most recent work was to have the wheels aligned by Lexus Birmingham which whilst expensive, did the trick. It runs smooth.

My Battery is not holding a charge. Does anyone know the best place for a replacement near Alvechurch / Redditch / South Birmingham / West Midlands?

Thanks Guys

Last time I sorted a Battery out, there were litterally pennies between the main dealer and autofactor prices. Just call kwik-fit, Lexus and a couple of others for a price. There is nothing special about the Battery so any of them should be able to get one.

The Battery on my 1996 GS300 Sport died after about a month of owning the car in 2004, so I got an own brand heavy duty one from Halfords for about £40-60 and it never let me down in over four years of ownership.

Thanks for your input lads

Get a price/quote from Lexus as well. When I needed a new Battery for my IS200 Lexus Leeds could supply me with a Battery cheaper than Halfords!

I forget to say that when I got mine in 2004 I went with Halfords because they were a lot cheaper than the main dealer at the time. It might be different now though.

If it's not too late to add a reply, try Toyota. They will have a perfect match for your car and at a good price. I paid less than £60 for my new Battery. Only difference between a Lexus or Toyota Battery is the sticker on it!

My Battery came from Lexus Leeds- it came with a Toyota sticker. I think you'll find that nearly all the parts you buy from Lexus will come with Toyota stickers/packaging.
