Hello /o/. Car noob here. This is my piece of shit. Go to start it tonight and bitch won't turn over. I was due for a battery anyway. My buddy is driving me to my local autozone and the only battery they have is their Duralast Gold. I mean I know their stuff isn't absolute top notch, but it should last me like 2 years right?
I changed my brakes/rotors to Duralast Gold Rotors and brake pads and they seem decent.
Aside from the battery brand. Battery changes are rather straight forward right? Remove negative connection first. Remove positive last and don't let it touch any metal parts of the car right?
Pls rspnd

literally just disconnect the battery and swap them out you fucking idiot.
the electricity doesn't apply anymore when one terminal's been undone, there's no more circuit.
fucking google it

all batteries are made by the same 2-3 companies. get an AGM battery because it's newer technology. normal batteries haven't changed in 100 years.

Your piece of shit looks clean and modern. Could be a Lexus as far as normies know.
Get a new battery and go away.

those are the wheels that came on it. (bought it from a Ford dealer used). Why replace what ain't broke. Plus they're "Sport Tuning" brand. i.e. tire rack brand. they work for me. Why spend $1k on wheels for an A to B car?

>buying a used car that was obviously owned by a nigger or boyracer that thrashed it like a racecar
you dun goofed. you could get some oem ones from a junk yard or ebay for <500 plus tires.

>nigger or racer
yea maybe. Bought it with 43k miles and other than change the oil and wearables, it's lasted fine. No issues at all. Wheels will be bought though as the one wheel is a bent. Nothing crazy but enough to require way more wheel weights than the others when balancing.
Are OEM ones that much better? What makes OEM alloys better than after market?

You replaced your own brakes? Replacing a battery should be literally nothing then.
The procedure you wrote is the right one.
