I installed a new battery on my car and it still doesn't start every time. I took it to the dealership and they said it is because I tightened the bolts too tightly on the terminals. Can this be the cause? Thanks

Hi there,

only if you split the terminal and it worked loose, ensure that the terminals are a firm fit and that they are clean and you should not have a problem with them.
