    Its a nice easy job to do, but the battery clamp can be stubborn, I show how to remove a stiff one.

    Thanks for the video, it was a great help changing out the battery in our Peugeot 108, the battery position and tray size etc seem exactly the same. Particularly grateful for the advice to be careful with the bolt, mine was corroded and if I hadn’t watched that, I would have probably sheared it off!!
    Went for the Bosch S4 063 battery, fitted no problem. Cheers!

    Hi i fitted a higher powered one to my daughters 107 ,i think it was a varta .with that model it had transit bungs to stop the acid leakage , which have to be removed before use, if not it cant breathe and gasses will build up and can even bulge the box out.sometimes they are small and easily overlooked,....great video as always

    One of the reasons I'm going to buy a 107, C1 or Aygo is because videos like this give me the confidence to tackle basic servicing and repairs myself. The cars remind me of older cars where DIY jobs were common and the parts are so cheap. I'm just waiting for the right car at the right price to come up near me. Of the 3 I prefer the look of the 107 but I don't really mind which I end up with.

    Hi. Thank you very much for detail instruction.
    I also wanted to add that if you check the battery holder plate, you will see there are 3 marks. One for petrol, the other 2 for diesel. So you could actually fit even bigger battery than the Bosch 063 S4 001.
    My Aygo 2012 has the battery box size of LxWxH = 242x175x190 mm
    Looking up for Bosch battery, you could max out with Bosch S5 005: 63Ah 610 CCA
    Could you please check your car and update this to the description so that people could find it out easily ?

I am wanting to upgrade to run my CB radio and linear amplifier (burner) in the car. When transmitting it will be drawing 10-12 amps. Would the Bosch battery for the C1 diesel fit, as that is rated at 52 amp hour?

    Once again thanks for these videos. Second time I've done a fix based on them and recently replaced my old battery with the Bosch which cost me only £52. Noticed the difference and hadn't realised the power improves and way it drives. The Wurst Rostoff I got last time came in handy again :) Annoyingly on the same day, I've slightly managed to get a few scuff marks on my front bumper at the very bottom section which now needs sorting out. Have you done anything on repairing this kind of thing for the 107? Oh and I think I need to do the wet boot issue next.
