How easy is it to change the battery?

Thinking of replacing my ageing battery with a Varta E44 silver dynamic.

Is it a simple DIY job? Does it cause problems with everything losing its data? Not sure that I know the radio code number etc.

Would be very grateful for your words of wisdom.

Tony

No code required for the radio, it may even do some good as disconnecting the battery will do a hard reset Thumbs Up

Fitted a Bosch 5 year guarantee! Works a treat! Worst bit was lifting the old one out of the car!

Sorry I dredged this one up from the dead. Posted previously on window reset procedure, but have since found it in another thread.

Thanks! Thumbs Up
