Thanks @Magnet for the recommendation. Yes I do a long distance commute every 2 weeks which I think keeps the battery healthily charged Just having new discs and pads, battery next 🙂

Just had a battery check done by the local garage (they're good, helpful and we have a good relationship). Battery health showing at 38%. Which sound to me pretty poor. Any thoughts? Thanks

@Magnet Yes Amazon, S5 A15 Bosch AGM Car Battery 12V 105Ah Type 020 S5A15 : Amazon.co.uk: Automotive

@Magnet Thanks. Battery prices were from a quick goggle search, I forget what popped up, maybe Amazon? Bosch equivalent looked to be about £250. I'll check out Halfords for an efficiency check. Thanks again for the input Chris

@Steve Q No fault codes. Any further thoughts on battery date codes? Looking on-line, replacements are quite pricey @ £200 +

@Steve Q the garage haven’t flagged anything previously, but I can take it in and have them double check. Battery is interesting, think it may be the original battery. Can’t tell which is the batch / date code, any thoughts? I can post some pics if that helps? Chris

HI All I have an issue with the DIS where it randomly switches its self off for no apparent reason. It can be off for months, and then randomly switch on again. This week I was sat in queue, operated the electric windows, and the display went off. When it's on it functions perfectly, no display issues or any other problem. When it's off, it also takes out the steering wheel mounted telephone controls. I have tried to switch on again via the bottom mounted RH stalk switch but this doesn't switch it back on or get any response. It looks like a power line fault, but I haven't a clue where to start fault finding. I'm not an auto electrician, but an engineer with a mix of skills. Has anyone seen something similar or can someone point me at a sensible place to start. The wiring diagram's I've found so far haven't been particularly helpful either Thanks in advance
