2023 Battery Replacement

[lorivl]

Assuming my battery needs replaced with slow start, sticky EPB, and having to get closer with fob. The replacement looks incredibly tedious. Any tips or tricks to make it easier. Hoping the guy at AutoZone can do it but just in case he can't, I need to get that 45# battery in and around the tight spots. I'm not a weak woman. I lift weights but we all know car batteries are heavy and awkward to install.

There's a you tube video for everything. Not the simplest but really not too troublesome either. Have the battery tested first just so you don't waste time and money. Good luck!

I ended up taking it in. Just seemed too complex to replace myself without risking losing programming. Battery was bad. Everything is working now, including the parking break button.

You're a modern woman....you don't need a man! Get a tattooed, pierced lesbian at AutoZone to do it for you...

really its more intimidating than it looks. Unclip it and take the wires off that hold it down. If you saw somebody do it once you could do it.
