How West Car Clinic Replaced a Mitsubishi Outlander Hybrid Battery

Delivering Expert Care for Hybrid & Electric Vehicles in Ridgehaven

At West Car Clinic in Ridgehaven, we recently had the opportunity to showcase our expertise in Hybrid and Electric vehicle servicing by replacing the high voltage battery of a 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander ZJ. This project highlighted our specialised skills, state-of-the-art equipment, and commitment to ensuring our customers’ vehicles perform at their best.

The Mitsubishi Outlander ZJ Hybrid is a brilliant example of modern automotive technology. However, like any vehicle, its components can degrade over time. The high voltage battery in this particular vehicle was no longer holding charge efficiently, which was impacting the car’s overall performance and energy efficiency. The owner reached out to us seeking a reliable solution.

Our certified technicians, who specialise in Hybrid and Electric vehicles, got to work in our dedicated EV service bay. Safety is paramount when dealing with high voltage systems, so the first step was to isolate the battery from the vehicle’s electrical system. Using industry-approved safety protocols and tools, we ensured that both the vehicle and our technicians were fully protected.

Once the old battery was safely removed, we installed a brand-new high voltage battery specifically designed for the Outlander ZJ. This involved calibrating the new battery to the vehicle’s software to ensure optimal compatibility and performance. After reassembly, the system was thoroughly tested to verify everything was functioning correctly, including the battery management system and hybrid drivetrain.

The results were immediately noticeable. The vehicle regained its original energy efficiency, offering the driver a smoother and more reliable experience. This replacement not only extended the lifespan of the vehicle but also enhanced its eco-friendly performance, making it as good as new.

At West Car Clinic, we take pride in being a trusted name for Hybrid and Electric vehicle servicing in Ridgehaven. With a dedicated service bay and a team of highly qualified professionals, we’re fully equipped to handle all types of hybrid and EV maintenance.
