After parking car and locking doors lights flash and stay on. Checked all doors closed and tried again same problem. Anyone any ideas?

Dealer said they upgraded the S/W and charged the battery, dont think its a new one. So far its ok.

On the first attempt the charger did show a fault ,on subsequent attempts it was showing normal charging status. Just went out and tried again to see the exact sequence of the lights colour and surprise surprise the thing starts charging normally. Don't really want to charge during peak times...

Tried to charge using granny cable, blue lights did not turn green and eventually went white. Screen showed 'charging connecting' but nothing happened. Gave up after a few attempts and tried again after a short drive, still no good. This has happened before , the service centre said they applied...

Did a test on my SE driving 124 miles mostly on the M40 and a few miles on A roads. 57% battery gave me 124 miles, working out to 218miles over 100%. When I started out at 100% it suggested 100% would give me 292!. I think thats because most driving I do is around town and it shows up as over 5...

Battery problem occurred again after 3 months or so,with the red engine icon lighting up, this time took it in straight away as also had a problem with charging. Isuue on forum as 'Unable to cjarge my SE' After software updates and charging the 12v battery they say it is fixed. Will wait and see.

Thanks I mentioned this to the service dept, it turned out an update to the VMS solved the problem.

Problem solved by doing a couple of software updates, took 3 days.

Yes an HS wouldn't mind swapping. Only problem is £1000 excess in the event of an accident.

I posted previously regarding the 12 volt battery not being charged resulting in me being stranded. The service centre charged it up and found no other problem however it has happened again, only this time it is worse.. I tried to put the car on charge but nothing happened, no blue lights on the...

Yes I had that problem and they used a mobile charging pack to drive me to the service centre. Yes they will take you to the nearest service centre.

Car was charged overnight and checked, no fault found ! Hopefully problem will not recur on the motorway.

Software update was for doors locking problem. Car is SE. The AA guy wrote in his report "Inverter not charging 12v battery and vehicle cut out."

Red battery indicator came on and in the manual it advised to take it it the service department , did so and was advised that because the car was only 50% charged it needed to be 100%, They suggested leave it with them that evening and they would charge overnight. I was dubious that this would...

Thanks I assumed it was a code sent to email .Now ok.
