Out and about all over today, car flawless, as it was anyway. Probably the most usage it’s had in a single day for months. At the end of the day checked th battery when off, 12.58V Surely the battery is in decent health?

No appreciate the guidance. Reset done, went fine and only had to reset the date and time. Car started everything works. I’m getting 14.37 V when running and 12.48 V when off. I’ll check it again in the morning

Spot on thanks for that. Will get that done tonight and hopefully that’s the end of it

I’ll get on this tonight, as said first time I’ve seen this so not sure if I’ll actually no of any difference it will still run through this. I’ll check the battery over as well

No code reader myself unfortunately. Negative lead off test just disconnect the negative only for something like 30 mins with live connected at all times and then re-connect? Any worries with doing this as if not I’d get it done tonight?

So the battery has been behaving and it got a full charge, all LED’s on the CTEK just the day before. Not had any concerns with my battery since I replaced it once however many years ago. However I will check it.

Folks, I did a prom run last night, an hour start to end. As always with prom runs lots of reving, a drive to the venue, a 10 minute sit in the queue of cars, drop off and leave. Right as I was about to drop the lads off and sat in neutral the N starts flashing, park off light comes on...

Thanks folks, I have BBC sounds already, will take a look at the others and see which ones seem to suit my tastes, as long as they play Adele I’m good to go :worried1: :p

Folks, Any recommendations for an app I can download to my phone that will then pop up on CarPlay to listen to the radio? I like to listen to all sorts of stations and do use the cars DAB for this, but if there’s an app out there that has the most stations on I’d give it a whirl. Cheers

We had the outter Hebrides all booked, crossings and hotels, and then Covid struck :confused: love to do that leg of it

Toured the Scottish highlands several times, probably about 8 times with from 3 up to 8 or so cars. Last one 3 years ago. You will love it, breathtaking. We always started Aberdeen, went right up to Tongue, usually stayed in Durness, then snaked down the west coast. Enjoy!

Deepest condolences to Andy’s family on his passing. After nearly 10 years on the forum it was always a pleasure to see Andy’s contributions. Thoughts are with his family at this time

Let me guess ... into brickwork / mortar? lol How many pinged off at 50 mph haha

Email fired off today, so will get the badge and just keep hold of it. Get the final bits done and back in it’s stable lol

Definitely looks like we have a winner thanks all for responding. De-badged it is then. Quite a sleeper car the 250d, certainly shifts when you plant the accelerator down. Last couple of daily drivers have been gutless, no more crapping myself when I need to overtake lol
