Heat, cold mornings, salt air and heavy rain each change what fails on a car and when. These are measured for New Germany itself, not written about the province.
New Germany sits about 18km from the sea. Salt in the air corrodes battery terminals, earth straps and wiring connectors faster than it does inland, and a corroded earth is a common cause of charging and starting faults that look like a failed part.
New Germany takes about 941mm of rain a year, most of it around December. Water that finds its way into connectors and lamp housings causes intermittent electrical faults, which are the slowest kind to trace and the reason fault finding is charged by the hour.

Ask what the fault finding costs before anyone starts, because a diagnosis is often charged separately from the repair. If the answer is a new alternator or starter, ask whether the quote is to repair your unit or fit an exchange one, and what warranty comes with each. For a mobile job, ask about the call-out fee. Ask for the old part back: it is the simplest proof that it was replaced.

A slow crank usually points at the battery or its cables, a single click at the starter or its solenoid, and a car that starts on a jump but dies again at the alternator. A battery and charging test separates them in minutes. What to check when your car won't start
