Model: Citroen C4 MK 1 - Years 2004-2010
Part: Battery

In this video we can see how to change the starter battery of a Citroen C4: we open the hood, and to the right of the engine block we can find the battery; we open the plastic cover and remove the positive cable, then move the entire upper cover to a place that is not in the way, open the plastic guide of the positive terminal, then remove the plastic cover of the battery. We remove the battery support plate and then unlock the negative clamp with an extension: now we can remove the battery. We scrape the white oxide inside the clamps, with sandpaper, then coat the clamps of the new battery with copper grease; we insert the new battery, reassemble the negative clamp, put back the support key, then the battery cover, reposition the cable in the guide and then the cover and finally the positive clamp in its place. Operation completed.
