All this work for a simple battery change that in other cars takes just a couple of minutes. What the hell were the french engineers thinking?
You think this is bad ?, check out this video on changing the 308 air filter LOL:

Great video, really easy to follow 👍 The only funny thing being that you actually need a video to replace a battery in a car nowadays :)
Thanks. Yeah this one was unnecessarily complicated !
👍👍Excellent thanks! 👍👍
The most informative and easy to follow video I've seen on UA-cam. No glory seeking or ridiculous music tracks etc. 👏👏👏👏
Thank you very much ! :)
Good video, don't think I will try this myself, why the hell do they design engines so badly, that it's hard to work on them geez..
Thanks, yeah the 308 is not very DIY-friendly !
Thank u very much. I changed my battery seeing your video
You're very welcome, thanks for watching !
Anything else I need to consider? Or learn something new? don't you remove minus first? and then plus?
Cracking video 👏👏👏 followed it step by step this morning and i have a working car again lol
Excellent, thanks for watching :)
THE MOST STRAIGHT FORWARD VIDEO EVER!!! Thank you x
Thanks for watching !
Thank you so much🎉 as a woman i fix our car, im proud😂
Thanks for watching ! 👍
Great Video - Easy step by step instructions with clear viewing plus showing how to do the job easily. Fitted my new battery today!!! Thanks for the help.
You're very welcome, thanks for watching ! :)
Hi,
Was this filmed near the beach or so ? 🤔😆
Thanks for the info though. 😎🖒
No I'm a few miles away from the coast but there's always seagulls about here :)
Im feeling so peaceful to hear a bird sounds on your video, that's like you're in the jungle or beach.. I wished you could show me around.. hehe.. Thanks for the instructions anyway
Thank you for watching :)
I want kiss you. thanks for this good, simple tutorial.
Thanks for watching !
Peogeot don’t make it easy like other motors. Fuck me I have to call out AA
No they don't lol :)
What an arduous and difficult process just to replace a car battery ! The French makers....what were they thinking ? Monsieur, replacing a car battery should be as simple as replacing the batteries in a flashlight...come to think about it....it is in a Toyota or a Nissan. Peugeot, any reason for this if it is not a trade secret ?
You think this is bad ?, have you seen the process for changing the air filter on the 308 ?.....it's ridiculous !. The designers clearly weren't thinking about service personnel when they designed these cars ! :)
Nice video, thank you very much. Very informative and useful. Hope for move video after this about Peugeot or any other vehicle
Thanks for watching !
Typical Peugeot to make it so complicated! I was looking for the negative connector to operate my air pump but I'm not going through all that rigmarole!
Yeah it ridiculous alright !
You can just take negative from any metal part on the car that's connected, same as with using a battery charger.
Brilliant, thanks for your time and effort. Camera work is superb, best I've seen so far. Cheers.
Thank you very much ! :)
Really great video. Thanks!
You're welcome, thanks for watching !
Brilliant video, thanks for that. What were peugeot thinking, making it such a ridiculously awkward job
Yeah they certainly don't make them easy to service !
Hi, most of the times at the time of changing batteries is recommended start for the negative. Is the opposite for this model? Thanks
Thanks for your brilliant video! Never thought I'd have to get instructions for a car battery! ' been working on my own cars for 51 years.
Thanks very much !. If you think this is bad, you should see what it's like changing the air filter lol :)
Never known such a hassle to do what is normally a simple task 🤬
The battery of my 2012 model peugeot 308 1.6 ehdi
diesel license auto should be the distance. 72Ah, 75ah
Great video. One of the best auto motive repair videos I've seen.
Thank you very much ! :)
Great video. I would also cut off those quick clamps and add proper thick bolt on clamps to ensure proper contact. The negative was bolt on clamp on my car but the positive was that junk quick clamp and i switched it to proper bolt on clamp along with changing the 2 wires that are soldered to it. Its so thin metal it weakens with time and start causing contact problems especially in cold winter starts. I hate it when car makers use these cheap battery clamps instead of proper bolt on ones.
Crystal clear instructions from start to finish including socket sizes excellent video.
Thank you very much :)
Thanks for the video,just a quick word the red round caps in the end of the battery need to be removed they are just used in transit. They are to let the battery breath and need to be removed before insulation or the battery will in the end explode
Well done! Excellent video. Very clear & accurate and easy to follow. Appreciate your efforts. Helped me a lot . A+++
Thanks very much ! :)
All this just for the battery, I guess that’s advancement 🦨🦨
It's ridiculous, isn't it !
@@screwsnutsandbolts all’s well , a green keeper form our local golf course popped up and changed the battery
Nice video , thank you so much for your precious help !!!!!!!!!!
You're very welcome, thanks for watching !
Great video, made it look easy and simple....gave me the push to change the completly dead battery myself...it went pretty simple, had some wire xtra in my 308sw..but just took that one off an back on same as the others...thanks for the video, im of for a drive now...weee
lol thanks for watching ! 👍
Thanks for uploading this video. by watching this video I have managed to change the battery on my car.

Excellent....
Thank you !
Thank you 👍
You are welcome

Cheers, this helped me see how the plastic cover comes off on a 5008.
Thanks for watching ! :)
Thanks for this, managed to do it by myself😂
You're welcome !
easy to watch video with great clear pictures and step by step process , im a woman who can look after my car myself :-)
Thank you very much for watching ! :)
Tq sir for showing us. It's help me out
You're welcome !
Mille mercis pour ce tuto parfait. On sent que chaque geste est mesuré pour qu'il soit bien compréhensible. Ce sont des gens comme vous qui font le vrai Web. Batterie changée en quelques minutes, ce qui, pour moi, est une forme d'exploit ! bravo bravo.
Many many thanks for this video. It's very clear and very useful. Battery removed and replaced in few minutes: a kind of performance for me! Congrats and king regards.
Thank you very much for watching !. I'm glad it helped you :) 👍
Yeah this worked for me too. Cheers! Had a few more cables in mine but close enough. Almost had a panic attack when I first lifted the bonnet and took a look!
Yeah it's a lot just to change a battery ! :)
Hey, what was the length of the socket driver which you used and did you have to put radio code afterwards?
@@anurag2206 I didn't have to recode the radio but I would check your user manual to be sure
80AH damn my battery in my C4 1.6 HDI is 60AH and I reckon its too weak
Greetings, Yes you are right, my 2015 C4 HDI needs a 70AH AGM (ie) a gel battery because it's a stop start model. Very very Expensive Citroen price £230 inc vat, £150 plus in Halfords and £15 to change it, or £150 plus vat from a local motor factor! Also very difficult to change.
@@malcolmcoundley9817 Trade discount you can pickup a stop start battery for £96 or euro car parts always have discount codes on you can get a good Excide battery for around the same £90-100 I have a 2009 C4 HDI and the battery isn't too bad to change just awkward the negative gets covered up by the plastic so you have to fit the positive last
Thank you so much. This video is in great detail.
You're very welcome ! :)
Is this the same method to replace it on peugeot 308 thp?
I'm not sure to be honest, sorry
Good video, pathetically complicated process
Thanks, it really is. Changing the air filter is even worse ! :)
Great video. Helped me out of a hole today. Thanks.
You're very welcome, thanks for watching ! :)
Why’s changing a battery so damn complicated !! Thanks for the instructions !
You're very welcome. Changing the air filter is even worse ! :)
I agree it is very difficult to access, made so much easier by the quick release clamp on the back (neg) terminal see my comment on 2015 citroen C4 where the neg terminal has 2 bolt on connectors, thats difficult!!!!!
Excellent! much appreciated.
Thank you !
Good video👍
Thank you ! :)
that is one dirty engin.
dont people keep there engin and engin bay clean.
it is nicer to work on
and you can spot any leaks ect easyer
and yes my spelling is not great.
but my engin and bay on my 2008 is spotless like new
👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks !
Very good video, thank you!
Thanks for watching !
Very very good video. Thank u.
Thanks for watching ! :)
What's the red pin on the positive side of the battery where the release valve is supposed to be?
dumb question, but why is a Peugeot connection, red and then black? I thought you always have to do reverse?
You usually disconnect the black negative terminal first but with this particular car you have to take the red terminal off first, to remove the battery cover, to then gain access to the black one
thank you @@screwsnutsandbolts

Great video
Thanks !
So complicated
Yeah they really made it far more complicated than necessary !
Sehr gut dargestellt ! Tolles Video !
Erstaunlich, wieviel man bei einem Peugeot Batteriewechsel machen muß.
Thank you !. I agree with you ! :)
Thank You ! Yesterday I removed the battery. Very quick with Your help.
It was not necessary to disconnect the cable from the Plus-platform.

@@rolwes54 Thanks for watching ! :)
Hhh
I disconnected my 308 battery for a moment now doesn't start
Check this link : www.justanswer.co.uk/peugeot/8vsci-av-307-iv-change-battery-day-won-t-start.html
I know it's for a 307 but it could be the same procedure.
Hey lads! So I charged my battery with a charger over 24 hours until it was full, after two rides of 8km each and 7 hours not using the car, it was emty, what do you reckon? Is it the generator or the battery. Worth mentioning that my car wasn't used for a month and stood still in minus 2 Celsius.
It could be either but it sounds like the battery is the most likely problem. It could also be a parasitic drain from somewhere. How old is the battery ?
Thanks 👍🏼
Thanks for watching :)
Très bien fait, merci 👌
You're welcome :)
Molto utile 🙏
Thank you for watching :)
Any tips on peugot 308 s hdi 2007 battery. Ie cheapest options?
No you'll just have to shop around I'm afraid. Where about are you based ?
thanks...
You're welcome ! :)
When you connect de + cable did you get any spark?
I don't think so. I put it on quickly to minimise any arcing.
How long does this process usually take?
It should only take about 10 minutes to change this battery. Most cars are a lot easier than this !
좋은 영상, 감사합니다
Thank you very much ! :)
do you have to reset the computer or not?
No, I didn't and everything seems fine
👍
:)
Hey, what was the length of the t shaped socket driver which you used?
I am looking to change battery in my 308 (2009 model).
Thanks.
I used a ratchet with an extension. I think it was 250mm in length
@@screwsnutsandbolts do you know what is the minimum length of t shaped socket driver is required to do this job?
@@anurag2206 I don't know exactly, it would have to about the same as the height of the battery, maybe slightly more
@@screwsnutsandbolts yeah, I thought so. Thank you.
@@anurag2206 Good luck 👍
Greetings, thanks for the video, I have a 2015 Citroen C4 when I removed the battery box cover, the neg terminal is bolted on in 2 places. Ioosened the neg clamp bolt but could not remove the clamp. The other clamp is under the windscreen and is extremely difficult to get to. Had to give up at this point and put everything back so I could close the windows and lock the car. Any ideas anyone, should the battery have failed after only 5 years?
I haven't removed a C4 battery myself but it sounds ridiculously complicated. Is yours similar to the one at 2:12 in this video ? : ua-cam.com/video/FGXNlcw4dGg/v-deo.html
@@screwsnutsandbolts Greetings and thank you so much for your reply, my c4 2015 blue SS has lots of similarities but has more cables and connectors on the front of the Batt than your video. The really difficult part was undoing the back Neg terminal, which wasn't quick release like your video. Perhaps for any future batt change you need to do on a C4, the easier way is to leave the battery clamp as is because this needs to come out with the Batt. Instead using a long ring spanner to undo the other nut and remove that clamp also there is a small cable connector that must be undone, then the Batt can be moved. My local trusted garage declined to do the job so I decided to have a go myself!
For your kindness in replying , I am sending a youtube link to a video that shows my model more closely, I hope this is helpful to you. The replacement battery must be 70 AH AND an AGM type (IE) a gell battery for this stop start C4. Is it usual to have to change a battery after only 5 years and 9K miles? I have never used the stop start facility, it's not a good idea in my oppinion.
Sorry but the youtube link is not shown possibly because \I underlined it, so here it is AGAIN I hope! ua-cam.com/video/idAVtVr5aVo/v-deo.html
@@malcolmcoundley9817 Wow that's even more complicated than changing the 308 battery. Ridiculous !
What mm screw head remover did you use?
I used 10mm and 13mm sockets
@@screwsnutsandbolts Thank you!
Quite a lot of work just to change a battery !. Good video :)
It really is ! Thanks :)
Great video. Very well put together.
Thank you !
