Mine gets a good round 62 mile journey every few days and never had a low battery warning. Do you do lots of short trips? MY25 90 D350 X-Dynamic HSE in Silicon Silver and coil sprung

Twice a week commute to work 23 and 24 miles each.

Then once a week dropping the daughter off to her class - 2x 8mileas each way.

Plus a run to on the motorway over the weekend 60ish miles.

Took the car to the dealer to fix the excessive wind noise and the battery is currently showing at 30% health again...

Update: seems to be free of the intermittent non-start issue following the 4.2.1 update and pressing and holding the pedal and button until it actually fires up. MY25 90 D350 X-Dynamic HSE in Silicon Silver and coil sprung

Good to hear all sorted Rob. I’d done the software update before rejection so at least the new owner won’t have that problem on it! It’s been resold by the dealer now so I’m waiting for the new owner to be posting their problems on here!
