    Hi guys,

    I need to replace my battery in my 575. I'm doing it myself since getting it to the dealer is a bit tough. Anything I should watch for in particular? It appears I may have to unbolt the expansion tank - does anyone know if that is the case? Or is there enough room to sneak it through.

    Thanks in advance.

    The tank has to be moved as you observed. Put in plenty of towels to prevent scraping anything.

    Thanks,

    Battery went in, only casualties were a small washer from the expansion tank and a broken magnetic pickup tool due to my bickering sons!

    Seating the battery was a bit tricky, only a few light curses directed towards our favorite car-maker.
