Newish battery, 12 months or so - occasion goes flat if car isn't used for a few days but it's odd, sometimes a week and it's fine.
I've had the car in BE/LU for pst two months and battery did go flat once, charged it - was quite quick so maybe it was 'on the edge'. Fine after, no issue.
Drove 350 kms to Rotterdam for Hull overnight ferry, no issues, all great. Got in car this morning to drive off the boat, flat battery. I turned alarm and anti-lift detector off on embarkation so there's no excuse, I can't understand why it went flat.
Ferry crew have a jump starter so we did that and sorted it but I think I must have a battery drain. And as I have Navtrack that cant be helping so I want to rip that out.
Oddly enough and as I didn't have time to do the relearning process, just jumped in and drove off, car made some cracking rev/exhaust noises on the A63, I'm certain of it since I kept trying to replicate it!
Got battery from Tanya, might check warranty, otherwise I'll get it tested but I really want the Navtrack out of the loop.
Passed 120k today BTW, is mine the highest mileage in the forum?
