I'll take some more once we get the longer days. Didn't have much of a drive today the weather wasn't great( I'm going to have a longer drive tomorrow). The noise, however, is just heaven. Also, had my first yellow warning on the dashboard, which is the parking sensors, any help would be appreciated..
I am looking forward to contributing once I get more experienced. Thanks for your welcome comments. Cheers!

Fellow Bristol chap here (not with a Maserati), I'll keep an eye out - Bristol is a better place for it :cool:

Congratulations and welcome! Nice part of the world to live in. Crud major has adopted Bristol so in less daft times we're fairly regular visitors. When normality is resumed we'll listen out for you - the most wonderful thing about Masers is that you can enjoy them for some time before you even see them.

Warning is probably the sensor. If you put the car into reverse but with the engine off, but ignition on you can place your ear to the sensors and hear a clicking (unless you are mutton).

If one is not making the noise that may be dodgy. Spray with wd40 may bring it back to life, but normally they are knackered.

I understand skoda and volvo ones are a match and there are a number of posts on here if you do a search.

Thank you. I'll check tomorrow. I also read that heavy rain can also be a cause.

More pictures as promised from the previous post. Also, had another yellow sign appear on the dashboard ( attached) It's was intermittent and didn't affect the drive at all. I'm going to have a diagnostic report done on Saturday. Any feedback or suggestions welcome. Cheers

No problems with the battery.
Are we sure has it been drop tested ?
Or check the voltage and charge with a multimeter.
Ignition off.
Ignition on.
Cranking and then running.
Maserati very voltage sensitive.
