Hi all
My last post was in the wrong section so here goes.
Have a consistent fault where the car goes into limp mode. Fault sequence
Terrain response system faulty followed by fuel gauge dropping to zero. Range then drops to zero. Happens every time it's driven between 7 and 20 miles. Turn off the car and lock leave for 5 min and will be back to normal although fault occurs sooner. The tank has been replaced with new senders and wiring mod done. Resistance at the bcm multi plug is within a few ohms of the values at the sender.

Just fitted a 10mm earth from battery to starter motor bolt.
Will take for a run and see if things improve.

Well I didn't get very far went into fault on startup.
This becoming a right head scratcher........

Forgot to add the fuel gauge went up to 3/4 of a tank before it dropped to zero which is odd as it's been on 1/2 a tank all week.

It's fault code time

I've had a dealer level diag and there's about 30 faults

Re the battery it's unknown as it's a banner non dated and we've not had the vehicle to long... but it has crossed my mind

I am assuming your faults were all wiped off and then a road test was done to bring 30 up if not they could have been sat on the systems for ever and a day.

If you have 30 current faults recording now you will need a big wallet then. FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years

Point taken I don't think the cars seen a main dealer or indy for 5 yrs so some could be old.
Will get a new battery sorted.
Any recommendations on make?

Exide Excell seem good, and supposedly have a different composition of the metal used for the plates which will make them last longer, but I could have been conned. I will update in about 10 years! www.tayna.co.uk are good and quick.

I used Tayna last autumn for a new battery at only 4.5 of ownership from new to ensure the next 4 to 5 years goes electrically well. These beasts are power hungry and need feeding well. FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years
