Thanks the CCA is 850 and the tester has a in car and disconnected setting also has before charge and after charge settings you put in the CCA value along with AGM spiral plate or flat plate, hope this helps.

My 2004 V8 was having transmission failsafe mode come up on a regular basis, it was diagnosed as low voltage so I bought Lucas AGM battery as advised by the auto electrician, a week later same faults coming up, I have a battery tester that has an AGM setting on it and it was comng up state of...

Unless the car is being used daily do not fit a tracker or you will have battery problems, l bought a car with one fitted and only used it at weekends, I ended up keeping it plugged in to an optimate trickle charger.

It only took 15 minutes so not really any faff at all, I think the genuine ones were about £25 each so I know what route I would rather take.

I bought a pair of P38 wiper blades and the good news is they can be adapted to fit, I removed the rubber blade from the arm of the new ones then slide out the two metal strips in the rubber, you then need to file a new drift in the metal strips to line up with the mounting clips on the l322...

That's usually the sign the alternator is on it's way out, put a voltmeter across the battery when the engine is running I think you want to see around 14.5v I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong.

Sorry James I have had a few family issues recently and not been on, i hope you are sorted but here it is www.carphonics.co.uk i found him very helpful and very fast in returning the unit it has worked perfectly since.

Thanks Datatek, that's exactly what I will try not a lot to lose at that cost.

They are 14cm I was hoping that they were interchangeable but I doubt I will be that lucky. The blades have gone rock hard on mine.

Thanks I did do a search but not with the part number as I was hoping to find aftermarket ones. Thanks for your post.

I was looking to put new wiper blades on the headlights of my 2004 l322 but are they unavailable now as I can't find any, plenty of P38 ones for sale but not for the l322. Anyone know where i can get them thanks.

I spoke to Baris over the phone explained the symptoms and he thought it sounded like a fault on the BM54 module which I removed and posted to him and it was back in 3 days to the Isle of Man and has worked perfectly ever since, i would definitely call him.

I would speak to Baris at carphonics he is a very nice guy who sorted out my amp issues with a extremely quick service.

This probably will not help but I have just had a new battery fitted along with some other work and I had the same on the display just the two triangles with a blank screen, I just went through the menu using the info button on the end of the stalk and it all came back on.

Latest update it was the BM54 module that was at fault, I have had it repaired and now fitted the DAB+ and all is working perfectly, thanks for the heads up with the DAB+ it's a great little system.

Do you mean Barry the vehicle examiner if so he was doing well last time he tested a bike for me.

We have a one off test on all vehicles over three years old imported to the island, the police can also send you to the test centre which is government run for a vehicle test, during the winter there are regular vehicle spot checks on the roadside carried out by the government testers and police.

Just an update, I spoke to cartronics and without going into too many details I would not use them but I found another company called carphonics a very helpful guy called Baris who went through my symptoms and as Saint had already suggested thought it probably was the BM54 unit. I sent it off to...

Thanks Backinblack I am sure it will be ok in the end, everything is repairable at a price.:(

Yes I did buy one and was going to fit it the other weekend and then the sound went on my system on the car, I have sent the BM54 module away for repair hoping that's the faulty unit. I remember someone telling me to ignore the small faults as they lead to big faults if you repair them on the...
