Hi guys,
Seen a few posts about 12V batteries... I've had issues since delivery. 12V died so was rescued AA, however jumping it didn't work. As a result they recovered to a garage, they replaced the 12V and sent me on my way.
Called AA again last week as was dead on drive... they jumped and all good. I did a long journey yesterday (approx 200mi round trip) so thought that's plenty to fully charge the 12V. I keep having issues though with the warning 12V low.
When I observed, I noticed a reading of 14.3V when in ready. Drops to 12.8V when not in ready mode and drops exactly 0.1V per second, right down to 9.1V (literally in half a min) where I then went back into ready mode in fear I was going to lose power again.
Dealership says they've already replaced and the volt readings in car are probably just wrong but not to worry - I assume it's something else with the 12V already being replaced?
