Spare wheel well, black box

Featured Replies

Hi there

The battery in my 2009 a4 avant is jaked and needs replacing. When I have had a look at the battery retaining strap 2 of the fastenings are obscured, by a large black plastic object. I have no idea what it is or it's function. Can this be removed to enable battery change and then replaced.

Any hints,help or ideas would greatly appreciated 

Regards 

Jezz Wilson 

it is the part of  the wire harnes  and on metal clips   that you can remove    then when new battery  fitted  it clips back on to it   kev

Hi Kevin

I don't think it's that. It's hard black plastic bolted down and shaped to follow the spare wheel. It backs on to the rear of the car
