iantt Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 i did check an 08 plate 1.8tdci earlier for you to see where exactly it went, was to dark to photograph the position, but did follow it down to the bolt head the cable follows the battery positive cable as you can see in this image, then to the bolt .
