Car would not start earlier , plenty of warning lights on the dash and i could hear the battery in the rear boot making some drained noises. I can see the usual leads plus 2 smaller connections so i am hesitant to remove it for recharging or replacing . until i understand the implications . Anyone got any suggestions as it cant move in its present state , Many thanks , Brian.

No problem with these.Remove the earth (negative )lead first .Remove the hold down clamp,(13 mm bolt),then slide the battery to the rear to make access to the positive terminal easier.Both leads should be secured to the battery by 13mm nuts.No need to touch anything else.Some of these are fitted with an underbnnet charge/starting point accessed under a plastic cover.Could be near a front suspension turret.
