My battery linkage is having problems as the thread to the positive terminal is worn. Thus there is not a good connection to the battery. In addition the threaded connector on the battery is also not the best. Does anyone have both of these in good condition? Im located in south London. Angus |

Im still having problems finding this. I went to Halfords and they did not have a clue what I was talking about. I have searched the forums and the part number I need is 5615.49. Any ideas on where I could find one. Anyone breaking one? |

Sorry to bump an old thread, but my battery is pretty shagged and I can't get the bloody ring off to swap it with the new spare in my other car that gets trickle charged with a solar panel. Anyone have any tips on how to get your old one off as pug have not made these for a while... |

Cut the end off the battery cable, put a new clamp on it, remove old battery with old clamp stuck to it, fit new battery, tighten new clamp onto new battery.________________________________________ 61k miles Ph.1 Diablo '6 Project Thread |

that was f**ked anyway, so you probably ruined a decent battery just because the adapter is knackered and not making contact.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |
