Many thanks for this. Just did it following the instructions, including the safety precaution.

Thank You for sharing your story. It helped me with my car. My car has the start stop system and everything went smoothly for me when changing the battery upon watching your video. On the cluster there was the message " New battery" yes/ no. I chose yes and started the car. No problems whatsoever. Thanks again I saved some money.

Can I ask what size the battery is in diameter please as I'm really unsure as to what battery I need thank you

Hi,
Is this the same on the 2015 facelift?
I need to replace my battery but I've seen people get error codes after doing it themselves.
Would it need programming too?

[@tracyjackson4406]

Thanks for the really helpful and clear video. I'm struggling to find a socket wrench that can fit in the gap to undo the negative terminal, any advice on the size you're using or where the wrench is from?

[@HaynesManuals]

Looks like we used a short extension between socket and ratchet

[@ahmedbruxelles3551]

You probably already found a solution but for next time just disconnect the other visible negative bolt take off the battery and then disconnect it from the old battery

Where are the battery terminals
