Why does the VW dealer tell me that I need to replace both battery cables?
Kbattle39
Because he believes they are unsafe and not working properly.
Let me clarify. Battery is 3-4 yrs old. Veh. is 2001 VW Passat. Cables & connectors and cable insulation all look very clean and new. Problem was that the veh took 2 to 3 more turns to start than usual for a short period and now is not doing that.
