vz sv6 battery replacement

[Turd Ferguson]

yeah lifes tough, i think holden could make it easier to refill the window washer fluid on the vp, popping that black cap just stumps me every time.

its not just random twats though, allot of people who really should know better take every chance that comes along to start an argument.

I think my sig sums up this thread perfectly though.

my vr is way harder to get to that hold down bolt....the vz is a walk in the park compared to that.
No biggy just do what you have to....and move on

Holden probably changed it because a plastic block and a bolt is cheaper than a clamp over the top of the battery.

Serious I searched for a procedure hoping it may come from the Holden manual. Instead no procedure just a bunch of OLD woman writing SH?T time wasters!!!

Undo 13mm bolt
Undo clamps 10mm nuts
Remove battery
Fit new battery
Fit clamps and tighten 10mm nuts
Fit clamp and tighten 13mm bolt.

Tomorrow we cover changing wiper blades.

Sure thing!

Open washer bottle lid
Tip in water till it's full
Close lid
Enjoy success and functioning washer jets.

Interesting discussion. I find the battery strap a problem for checking the water levels. On my old Century battery, the top flap of the battery had to swing open to reveal the filler caps. Battery strap would have been in the way, perhaps this might be why Holden changed it. I have a no maintenance battery now, because I keep forgetting to check the levels!
