Fast, honest battery testing and replacement for every make — including stop-start AGM systems and European cars that need battery coding after replacement.
A flat battery never picks a convenient day. West Ryde Service Centre has been testing and replacing car batteries across Sydney since 1981 — from daily drivers to European luxury vehicles with stop-start technology. Every job starts with a free battery and charging system test so you only ever pay for what you actually need. If a replacement is required, we fit a quality battery matched to your vehicle's exact specification, reset the battery management system where required, and have you back on the road the same day.
A full load and CCA test on your battery plus an alternator output check — free, and it takes about ten minutes. Know exactly where you stand before spending a cent.
Quality batteries matched to your vehicle's specification, fitted the same day you call. We dispose of your old battery responsibly through accredited recycling.
Modern stop-start vehicles need AGM or EFB technology — fitting a standard battery causes charging faults and early failure. We supply and code the correct type every time.
Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen vehicles must have a new battery registered with the ECU. We perform BMS resets with factory-level diagnostic equipment — skip this and your new battery can fail within months.
If your battery keeps going flat, the problem may be the alternator or drive belt. We diagnose and repair the whole charging system, not just swap the battery.
Parasitic drains, corroded terminals and earth faults traced with proper diagnostic equipment. If something is killing your battery overnight, we'll find it.

I recently took my RS3 to WRSC Performance to have an eventuri turbo elbow and intake installed, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Shunt and his team were professional, honest, and upfront from the start. They explained exactly what would be done, kept me informed throughout the process, and completed the work within the timeframe they promised. The quality of the workmanship is outstanding, and it’s clear they really know these cars inside and out. If you’re looking for true RS3 specialists who take pride in their work, WRSC Performance is the place to go. Thanks again to Shunt and the team, I highly recommend them!Posted on Google![]()

Outstanding service. Very quick, professional and just all round above and beyond. Found from the minute I walked in I was welcomed and given the time of day. Got two cards checked for a pinkslip on short notice and they processed both extremely quickly during my lunch breaks. Wish I could rate higher!Posted on Google![]()

As someone who works in the automotive industry myself and pays close attention to workmanship, service quality, and attention to detail, I can honestly say the team at West Ryde Service Centre (WRSC) have been exceptional. They’ve looked after both my G80 M3 and F95 X5M for servicing and tuning, and every experience has been professional from start to finish. Their communication, transparency, and genuine care for the cars really stand out. What I appreciate most is the attention to detail — not just mechanically, but in the overall customer experience as well. It’s rare to find a workshop that combines technical knowledge with such high standards of service and consistency. You can tell these guys are passionate about what they do, and they treat every vehicle with respect. It gives real peace of mind knowing the cars are in capable hands. Highly recommend WRSC to anyone looking for a trustworthy workshop that genuinely cares about quality.
