I was just wondering if there are any guides on here to changing the battery on a gti 180?
The garages want £90 so i think i'm going to buy one and do it myself.

A GTI 180 is MULTIPLEXED.
The BSI must be shut down / booted up in the correct way else your risking having to bend over & Vaseline treament from the local Peugeot main dealer

If you tried using the SEARCH function on the forum you would find the correct info on how to shut down / boot up the BSI safely so you can change your battery.

It's literary a 5min job

I was just about to say the same thing GG, mine was off when having the cam belt done and it was just off with the terminals and nothing happened apart from retuning the radio.
