    Well Today

    I've read Borises encyclopedia and decided to go for a drive. Now my motor has been sitting in the garage for almost 8 weeks now, I put the charger on the battery twice for a couple of hours each time, in that 8 weeks. Didn't run the engine in that time, apart from filling the Engine with condensation, the DPF wouldn't like it.
    Checked levels and tyres, turned the key and she started instantly. Gave it a good run.

      Mine ain't worked for months, but after I charged battery it worked instant for a few days. Suspect even with parking mode turned off I'm getting a drain somewhere. Or could just be battery getting tired. Noticed after stopping it's at 13v the drops to around 12.4 after 5 minutes. When starting in a morning it says 11. 2v but before actually starting it says 11.6 volts and fires instantly.

          14.8 ish, but will drop the longer I drive, drops to 13v at times, think it depends how much juice your using and demand on alternator.

                      The hidden ones! ! Sounds like something from a supernatural Tale.

                      How do I switch them on if they are hidden? I haven't found the hidden ones because they're hidden. LOL
