2009 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Manual Stornoway Grey

FL2 (2009) battery negative loom

Hi all,
The negative battery clamp will not fully tighten on the battery post - must be distorted/damaged. I've found 2 looms listed by breakers on Ebay but with different part numbers: AG9210C652 and BG9210C652. They look the same but I guess they might have different management units? Can anyone kindly suggest which version I should go for? Many thanks.

I would have wrapped aluminium foil round the post and tried that.

Loosen the clamp nut fully, and push the stud downward to free it at the bottom of the clamp. Then tap the clamp fully down on the battery post, which should protrude by about 4mm. This will spread the clamp to its correct position, allowing the clamp bolt to to pull the clamp together properly when the nut is tightened. Don't over tighten the nut, 9Nm is the torque spec IIRC.

Excellent - many thanks! I'll try this tomorrow.
Just for info, how do you find your Hyundai?
Cheers

I love it. It's very different from the Freelander, obviously, but it's different in a good way. The only thing I miss is the very elevated driving position of the Freelander, as in the Ioniq 5, my eye level is about 4" lower. However it's still higher than a normal hatchback, which is what I would describe the I-5 as, it's a hatchback at 130% scale.
Performance can't be compared, as the EV knocks spots off the Freelander. Economy can't be compared either, as the Ioniq is under 1/10th of the running costs.
All in all, it's a very nice vehicle to drive and live with, with plenty of space inside for passengers. The girls love the room in the back, as there's more than in the Freelander, and the reclining rear seats are perfect for long journeys. Hyundai Ioniq 5 Ultimate. The family car.
