Car battery is down
Hi QLers,
I need some help. I went on vacation and when I came back the battery is dead. I have tried to start with cable with the help of another car, it did not work. I am quiet sure it is the battery problem. How do I repair it. There is a garage close to my house, but the guy want to bring the car to his garage.
Any help will be appreciated. I live in Duhail Area close to Landmark Mall.
Thanks,

I have automatic transmission. With the jumper cable, the engine was cracking but I guess did not get the full strength it requires.
Thanks folks for all your valuable recommendations.
Earlier I was thinking to re-charge, but now I am having second thought of replacing the battery. Atleast I will have peace in mind that battery is new.
Thanks again for everyone who contributed.
Don't buy a new battery just yet; it should start on jumper leads regardless of how dead your car's battery is. Give me some more information first:
Is the battery completely run down? Do the lights, radio, etc, work, without jumper leads?
When using jumper leads, does the engine turn over at all?
Does the car have an immobiliser?
Is it an automatic or manual transmission?
Batteries have a life of 2-3 years here. Replace it.
Well Mr.Sherazi your battery is expired due to unplugging the wires before leaving for vacation.Such batteries even can't be operate from jumpers connected to other car's battery or battery.The reason is that the acid inside the battery has expired.So you have two options.
1.Take the battery to nearest garage and ask them if the battery is repairable and chargeable .In this case they fill the battery with new acid and charge it up.Approximately they will charge 20 or 30 Riyals.
2.Or Purchase a new battery.Depends on the Amp of your battery and type of the new battery it may comes between 140-270 Riyals.
The 2nd option will be recommended if your battery can't be repaired.
Hope you find the right what you want.
It may not be your battery.
It could be your starter motor.
If you have an automatic you cannot ‘rock the engine’. If you have a manual gear box- rocking it may help.
Good luck x
