Battery replacement - XC70 2002

Hi,

I've removed the cover with the two top screws, and the screw that is attached to the back of the car.

I've also remove another screw at the bottom, near the side of the battery.

I still can't remove the old battery. It seems stuck with, I'm guessing, another screw.

Does anyone know why the battery won't move ?

Thanks.

VADIS instructions show only 2 nuts on top and a screw in the back...try knocking the battery with the palm of your hand to see if it comes loose. Also, there is a hose on the top that drains any battery gases or leaks through the floorboard that will need to come loose (you probably already found that).
