Looking for premium car, caravan, and camping batteries for sale or replacement? Your search ends at LM Motors in Townsville, where we prioritise the power needs of your vehicle.

A frequent problem during winter is battery failure. Why does this happen? Cold temperatures affect the chemical reactions within a battery, reducing its charge capacity. As it gets colder, the battery's capacity drops, and your engine demands more power to start due to thicker oil. This combination often leads to battery failures, highlighting the need for a battery that can withstand cold conditions.

Recognising Battery Issues in Cold Weather

At LM Motors, we get it. We can order in and install the ideal battery for any vehicle, whether it's a car, 4x4, pickup truck, van, caravan, or camping setup.

Batteries tend to deteriorate and become more prone to failure after three years. To avoid getting stranded, regular battery testing is essential. The team at LM Motors advises vehicle owners with batteries older than three years to use our testing services to spot potential issues early.

Caravans, which often sit idle for long periods, are at a higher risk of battery failure. Before your next trip, bring your caravan in for a battery check. This precaution can help you avoid unexpected problems and ensure your journey starts smoothly.

LM Motors test your car battery at ever service to give you peace of mind. This preventative measure can identify the health of your car battery so that a timely replacement can be arranged. 

Selecting the right battery is just the beginning. At LM Motors, our expertise extends beyond sales. Our wide range of services guarantees that your vehicle is well taken care of.

For those in Townsville seeking high-quality car, caravan, and camping batteries, along with outstanding service, LM Motors is the place to go. Don’t let a dead battery ruin your day or trip.

Therefore, you should consider this when budgeting your time and finances.

We can perform fully qualified log book servicing on a wide range of makes and models including: Holden, Ford, Mazda, Toyota, Nissan, BMW, Audi, Hyundai, Honda, Kia - and many more.

Did you know there is a cabin air filter in your car? Where is your cabin air filter? They are designed to remove a large amount of outside air pollutants and debris to keep you breathing easily when you drive.  And it is usually located in your glovebox. Talk to LM Motors in Townsville today about your cabin air filter !

Just like your air-conditioning at home, the filters need to be checked at regular intervals and changed when it has done it's job. Replacing your cabin air filter is important to your health and your cars health too!

The air outside your car can be polluted enough with smoggy city traffic or even dusty country roads, but research published in the Environmental Health Perspectives Journal shows that without an effective cabin air filter installed, the air inside your car can contain over 10 times more pollutants than the air outside.
This poor quality air can cause:

"Cabin air filters are designed to filter out contaminants while  absorbing noxious odours and harmful gases like exhaust and ozone,"  explained Ryco Filters General Manager of Sales & Marketing, Ross Lamb. Cabin air filters become clogged over time and their effectiveness at protecting your health declines. 

If you drive ‘Mum's Taxi', you might feel like you are always on the move - and a recent study into driving habits confirmed that parents with children aged 6-15 drive approximately 10% more than drivers without kids. And, the longer you spend in a vehicle with a Cabin Air Filter that needs replacing, the more you are at risk of health complications. 

As well as healthier air - an effective cabin air filter means you get better fuel performance from your vehicle. A clogged cabin air filter will cause your air conditioner to work harder than it needs to and this means it uses more fuel and your air conditioning system is more likely to have a costly breakdown.

At LM Motors in Townsville we check your cabin air filter as part of our free 65 Point Vehicle Inspection report which you can request with every full car service.
For a more comprehensive check of your air condition system we recommend an air conditioning service.
