# Renault Battery in Málaga

> Varta battery for your Renault in Málaga, no appointment, in ~15 min. EFB on TCe Start-Stop and auxiliary 12 V on E-Tech, registration included.

Home › Car batteries › Batteries by brand › Renault The Renault range runs 12 V batteries, almost always a 60-70 Ah EFB in the TCe engines with Start-Stop and a conventional one only on entry versions without Start-Stop. The brand's quirk is the E-Tech full hybrid : it carries an auxiliary 12 V lead-acid battery that does not crank the engine —that is done by the high-voltage starter-generator (HSG)—, but if that 12 V runs flat, the Renault will not power up even with the traction battery full. At Málaga Baterías (C/ La Orotava, 100, 29006 Málaga), Official Varta Distributor since 1999 , we test the battery for free and change it with no appointment, in about 15 minutes , ECU registration included. Guide prices, fitting included: 85-140 € conventional, 130-230 € EFB and 180-280 € AGM.

Every kind of Renault rolls along the roads of Málaga: Clios of every generation, Capturs, Méganes and more and more E-Tech hybrids. On modern models with Start-Stop and a sensor on the negative terminal, dropping in a battery and closing the bonnet is not enough: it has to be registered in the ECU so the car charges it properly. We do it on the spot, with no appointment and in store (we do not fit at your home), at C/ La Orotava, 100, 29006 Málaga .

What battery does a Renault take?
Most current Renaults use a TCe petrol engine with Start-Stop, which needs an EFB (never a conventional one): the EFB withstands the thousands of Start-Stop restarts. Some entry versions without Start-Stop are happy with a conventional battery. The important exception is the E-Tech full hybrid (Clio, Captur, Mégane, Austral...): its 12 V battery is auxiliary , it powers up the car and feeds the electronics, but it does not crank the combustion engine —the high-voltage starter-generator (HSG) does—. That is why on an E-Tech the cranking amps (CCA) figure is shown as “—”: it does not apply. And it is counter-intuitive: if that auxiliary 12 V runs flat, the hybrid gives no “READY” and will not power up even with the high-voltage battery charged. Some engines also come as bi-fuel LPG/E85 , which for the 12 V battery behave just like the equivalent petrol. If your Renault has a sensor on the negative terminal, the new battery must be registered; you can move up from EFB to AGM, but never down from AGM to EFB.
Model Typical technology Start-Stop Note
Clio EFB (TCe) · auxiliary 12 V on E-Tech Yes On E-Tech the 12 V doesn't crank: the HSG does
Captur EFB (TCe) · auxiliary 12 V on E-Tech / PHEV Yes E-Tech version with a 12 V service battery
Mégane EFB (TCe / Blue dCi) Yes Mégane E-Tech Electric: auxiliary 12 V
Austral EFB or AGM (12 V) Yes Mild-hybrid / E-Tech: auxiliary 12 V
Kangoo / Trafic Conventional or EFB Version-dependent Van: higher capacity and CCA

Signs it's time to change it

- Slow cranking when cold, especially first thing in the morning.

- Start-Stop stops kicking in on the TCe engines: the classic first warning.

- Battery warning light or a “check charging system” message on the dashboard.

- On an E-Tech , no “READY” and it won't power up even with the hybrid battery charged: it is almost always the auxiliary 12 V.

- Battery changed recently but not registered in the ECU: the car charges it as if it were the old one and it lasts half as long.

- More than 4 years. In Málaga a conventional battery lasts 4-6 years on average and an EFB/AGM 5-7 .
