I have to admit the rr means the world to me would always have one, but they have big issues and hope to solve them but I'm no electric Wizard lol.
 
hmm..

I'm a Fleetwood fan myself, never heard of the other two :oops::D

More of an Wojciech Killar Old fashioned music fan myself :eek::D

Oh and of course old country Johnny Cash fer eggsample :D


Creedence Clearwater Revival.. Bad Moon Rising.. apt for any Range Rover owner.

I liked Johnny Cash's American albums. have those too
 
would just like to say thanks for your help and advise, I have come to the decision that a kill switch is not the way I shall keep looking and I will find the problem maybe it will take some time and money thanks again Rob
 
I have a 1000cca 120AH on my little 2497cc. You can probably fit a larger or second one, use a plug in trickle charger? @Datatek is a electrickery wizard and likes his solar panels
the trouble I have any cables from the house have to go over the foot path so not much good, solar panels give fulse security.
 
Doesn't sound a lot for a car equipped like Darth Vader's bathroom. Does the manual say what it should be?

0.2 amp is 500 hours to empty on a 100 A/hr battery. That's pretty much 20 days.
0.2 amp (200Ma) will take a battery below the level that will start the car in much less then 500 hours. 30 to 50 ma is the most that is really acceptable as a constant drain, certainly not more than 80ma.

Yes, I was just trying to show how long it would take to empty the battery. P38 uses 30mA when asleep but no idea what the L322 is supposed to use.
 
They are thirstier.
Nearly scrapped my P38 because of parasitic drain. Reading a lot on here, particularly datateks advice and arguments raised, managed to work my way through it as a complete layman on the duff battery.
Got it to go from battery off and charging every other day, to once a month. Then upgraded to new 1000cca, all sorts of issues disappeared and no trouble since
 
That's just it 30ma asleep is good, but these l322 wake up through the day to do a check, and go mental, lift suspension,computers talking to each other, just about everything comes awake, as I was told its like Darth Vaders bathroom
 
My BMW M51 was same til I started unplugging and investigating. Still needed bigger battery, your M57 more so - you would need one atleast power of mine surely?

I minimised the hissy fits and waking up on the crap battery - long and arduous process - then replaced it.
Honestly the best thing I have ever done to improve the vehicle. Drives a lot surer, starts easy even if left for weeks, no more tantrums plus I do not worry anymore about how many gizmos/lights I am running or will I get my shopping back still frozen :)
 
See if this guy can help you

Battery replaced with bosch 110 a 920cca surprising how doing that has changed rr surprising much of a difference it makes you wouldn't think that a bad battery wood effect air suspension that much
Next project is cluster renew Lcd display and all stepper motors as 2 out of four are broken I have all parts been quoted £62 to do repair at akspeedo send cluster away etc etc
