I must say, thank you for this step-by-step article. :)
ReplyDeleteMost of the emergency situations come when u have to replace flat tyres and/or dead battery. Knowing how to do it can save u day.
ReplyDeleteDo practice but always carry the required tools in the car all the time.

Uncle, you're the best!! Pandai la!!
ReplyDeletesalam uncle, great diy stuff as always. Please invite me whenever u're organising a DIT session again especially for 308, wud luv to join if time permits. we met few weeks ago at ks when i went for inspection.
ReplyDeleteconsidering the no.s of 308 that had their batteries replaced in less than a year of its age, i'm contemplating of keeping a spare in the car at all time, jus in case it went dead in d middle of no where. do u know what batt is compatible for 308 we can buy other than from sc? the stated Ah is 60, however according to zali ks, he had temporarily replace mine wt a 206 batt while waiting for replacemnt to arrived & i used it for nearly 2 mths. i dun know wat Ah is 206 batt but i wud presume is lesser. do u think a lower Ah batt can crank our engine? i saw the brandname of replacemnt batt they use is Varta, however a quick search on d net found no local supplier
Hasnul,
ReplyDeleteOf course 206 batt has lower AH capacity but don't worry, I had even tried to crank Merc W124 2.3 liter engine w/o any problem.
U r welcome to my 'bawah pokok' workshop on any Saturday Morning from 9:30am. We can DIT [do it together] on simple maintenance. I have enough basic tools.
Pls let me know before hand.

shouldn't you disconnect negative terminal first when removing any battery ?
ReplyDeleteYakubu... Correct and I don't disagree with you. Old school book also say so.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately on Peugeot 308 THP you have to disconnect +ve terminal FIRST in order to remove battery jacket. Without removing battery jacket there is no way to disconnect -ve terminal.
