How to replace the battery of the Opel Astra J

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra J - Years 2009-2016
Part: Battery

Thanks to the following video tutorial, we can replace the battery of the Opel Astra model J independently. To replace the battery, we need to open the front hood, the battery is located on the right side next to the engine. We unscrew the nut on the negative terminal connector, so we can disconnect the terminal and perform the same operation to unscrew the nut on the positive terminal and disconnect it. Using the same key, we unscrew the connector nut and after disconnecting it, we remove the bolts on the bracket. After removing the bracket, we remove the battery from its seat. We insert the battery into the seat and connect the positive terminal, connect the negative terminal and the connector. We position the bracket and screw in the locking bolts. After closing the hood, we start the vehicle to test the battery's operation.

Installation of Upgraded Intercooler Radiator with Pipes

Lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands, remove the front wheels, and then the front bumper and grille. Proceed to remove the front headlights; drain the coolant, remove the intercooler radiator and the hoses connecting it to the intake system. Position the new intercooler radiator in the grille, temporarily securing it with cable ties, and mark with a marker the part of the metal that needs to be removed to allow the new hoses to pass through. Cut the marked portion of metal and apply a gasket to the edge. Remove the inner cover of the bumper and position it near the radiator to identify any interfering parts to eliminate: again, apply a gasket to the edge of the cut. Create brackets for securing the new radiator and proceed with the installation of the connecting pipes from the radiator to the intake, shaping and connecting them appropriately. Finally, reassemble the bumper, headlights, and grille.
