For sharing.
My car just wont start last week. The symptoms of weak battery are just like what everyone mention; took longer time to start.
I just finish changing the battery by myself. Its not that difficult when i follow the guide by this 308turbo user.
diy-removing-batteryI took out the battery and send it to battery shop by myself and buy new one bcoz not confident on the size bcoz some say din55 some din60 and the sticker there written din66???
Bring back the new battery home and install back. Start engine and walla! (Of course i followed the precaution in both the manual and guide from the 308 guy above.)
What i've learnt:1. Do not do it while engine running (as per 408 manual)
2. Battery size DIN55 (they wrongly put din66 sticker on my original yokohama battery)
3. No wierd stuff happened on my electronics, only need to reconfigure time and radio station.
4. You can disconnect the battery as you wish (pls read manual on the steps need to be taken before disconnecting battery) Its even recommended in the manual to disconnect battery if not using the car for long period.
