Hi all,
I have just acquired one of these vehicles (gifted from family) and am in the process of getting the vehicle registered for the road.
I have been told by the roadworthy inspector in the ACT that the battery is loose and needs to be secured before it will pass the inspection.
As a novice to both the CRV and cars in general, I have no idea what he is talking about as when I inspect the battery, it feels pretty secure to me!
I've attached a few pics, I note there is space around the battery holder so perhaps the battery that is in there is too small? If this is the case, do I need a new battery or can I like wrap it in foil or something to make it bigger?

Thanks in advance for any help!
