You can Select Your Vehicle to check if BA0086525W fits your vehicle.

The battery is mounted behind the lower front portion of the left front fender, and the remote positive and negative terminals are located in the engine compartment at the left strut tower.

Loosen the left-front wheel lug nuts, then raise the front of the vehicle and support it on jackstands. Remove the left-front wheel and inner fender splash shield. Also remove the engine under cover. Remove the fuse box assembly mounting bolts and position it to the side. Remove the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) mounting bolts, then position it to the side. If necessary, also remove the PCM mount for better access. Detach any wiring harness clips from the battery tray, then remove the battery tray mounting bolts - accessed by working from the engine compartment, fenderwell, and from below the vehicle. Remove the battery tray, rotating it as necessary. Installation is the reverse of removal.

To disconnect the battery for service procedures requiring power to be cut from the vehicle, simply loosen the cable clamp nut and disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal. It is important to isolate the cable end to prevent accidental contact with the battery terminal.

Unscrew the bolt and remove the hold-down clamp from the bottom edge of the battery. Lift out the battery using special battery removal tools available at auto parts stores for easier handling.
