About ACDelco

Who makes ACDelco batteries and what they are known for

ACDelco is the parts brand of General Motors and the name on the original battery of most GM vehicles. Its history goes back to Delco, which helped bring the sealed maintenance-free car battery to market in the 1970s. The batteries are built for GM by contracted manufacturers, so the country of origin on the label varies by size.

ACDelco in UAE heat

ACDelco batteries are sealed, calcium-alloy designs, which lose less water in heat than older serviceable types. American trucks and SUVs often have large engine bays with the battery close to the engine, so we check the heat shield or insulating sleeve is refitted after a battery change. That sleeve is there for a reason in this climate.

How it works

From your location pin to a car that starts

Four steps, and you know what is happening at each one. Nothing is fitted until the battery has been tested.

  1. 1

    Share where the car is

    Send a location pin with the road name, direction of travel and the nearest exit or landmark. In a basement, add the level and bay.

  2. 2

    Confirm the car details

    Make, model and year, plus a photo of the battery label if you can. That is how the right battery gets loaded.

  3. 3

    Get an arrival estimate

    We check access and technician availability, then tell you when to expect us before anyone sets off.

  4. 4

    Test, then jump or replace

    The technician tests the battery, explains the reading and carries out a jump start or a replacement. The car is started before he leaves.

Car died at a petrol station off Sheikh Zayed Road. I sent the pin and said which side of the road I was on. The technician tested the battery first, showed me the reading, then swapped it. Card payment on the spot.

Basement P3 in the Marina, low ceiling, no chance for a tow truck. He came down with a booster and a tester. Turned out the battery only needed a jump, so that is all he did. Honest.

Aarav S.Al Quoz

Needed an AGM for a start-stop car. They asked for a photo of the old battery label before coming, so the right one was in the van. Registered it to the car as well.

Evening traffic made it later than the first estimate, but they messaged to say so. The fitting itself was quick and he checked the charging voltage before leaving.

Pickup would not crank at the yard. Battery tested fine, the terminal was loose and corroded. He cleaned and tightened it and did not try to sell me a battery.

Paid with Tabby, which helped that week. Old battery was taken away, the new one came with the warranty card filled in. Would call them again.

السيارة ما اشتغلت الصبح في موقف البناية. أرسلت الموقع ورقم الطابق على الواتساب، والفني فحص البطارية قبل ما يبدلها وشرح لي النتيجة. شغل مرتب.

رجعت من السفر والسيارة واقفة شهر كامل. الفني جاء للبيت، اشترك البطارية وفحصها، وقال إنها تحتاج تبديل وأعطاني ورقة الضمان. تعامل محترم.

اتصلت الساعة 2 الفجر والرد كان سريع. عطوني وقت تقريبي للوصول قبل ما يتحرك الفني، وبدل البطارية في الشارع قدام البيت. شكراً لكم.

Questions

ACDelco battery questions

Short answers to what drivers ask before and during a battery call-out.

Read all questions and answers

Is ACDelco the original battery for Chevrolet and GMC?

Yes. ACDelco is the General Motors parts brand, and most Chevrolet, GMC and Cadillac vehicles leave the factory with an ACDelco battery. Fitting the same brand keeps the case size, hold-down and terminals as the car was designed, which avoids cable strain and loose fitment.

Can an ACDelco battery be fitted to a non-GM car?

Yes, as long as the size, terminal layout and technology match what the car needs. ACDelco batteries are used on many Japanese, Korean and American cars in the UAE. We check the fitment for your model before bringing one.

My Tahoe has start-stop. Which ACDelco does it need?

A GM vehicle with start-stop is normally fitted with an AGM battery, so the replacement should be the ACDelco AGM in the same group size. Some models also carry a second auxiliary battery. Our technician tests both and tells you which one has failed before anything is replaced.

Where are ACDelco batteries made?

ACDelco is a GM brand, and the batteries are produced for it by contracted battery manufacturers in several countries. The origin differs by size and by market, and it is printed on the label. Ask the technician to show you the label and the production date before fitting.
