Might be related to a previous problem, but the battery is at 11.8, and was serviced couple months ago, but was sitting for 4 weeks not used, Error messages attached - Ventilation related? MAF? Serviced about 2-3 months ago, new air filter included. Suspension problem fixed - new control unit...

Thanks guys. I got a GAP IIDcontrol reader, Bluetooth 3. I think it was previously for a Rangey, but i upgraded the firmware, and all works fine. I wonder if it is the duct at top of radiator, where i have been leaning over to get to the battery connectors. I will check that in the morning...

OK - owns up… batter connection on the Neg terminal was not as secure as it now is :( It was tricky to get it on and tighten when i replaced the battery. (The new battery seems to push up against the thick black cable more than the old one. I took out the battery and charged it up and refitted...

Yeah... nothing keyless, but defo got that message , so as lynall said maybe the software doesnt match the car :) Its Auto and the switch definately worked until recently, but now it doesnt do anything with ignition on, but car not running.

Definitely a 3 and definitely saw that message - how else would i know it said it? It is now saying Park Brake fault every time :( Fault reader winging its way to me. Battery is new, recently, after advice from this board! :) [thanks]

I'm lucky to only drive it in the dry :)

Thanks Anaconda - is there any option other than the £500 option? Does a second hand one (about £260) do most of what I need - as I saw some comments about needing a new licence key for my VIN at about £60? Thanks - and sorry for newbie questions

Hi, 56 TDV6 fires up and then cuts out immediately with a number of different warning lights and messages - and they dissapear before i can read them. ( Serious Fault / put the key fob next to the parking brake / different ones each time I think) I dont fancy spending >£500 on a fault reader -...

Hi, i have a Disco3 TDV6 HSE 56 plate, which after some help on here has a new battery. It was recently serviced by a local indy and belts all changed. Its got about 90k miles and will be used getting me from Oxfordshire to Outer Hebrides in the spring and autumns. I was in IT for 40yrs and am...

OK, so I got the Yuasa 019 as there is a Halfords at the bottom of the road. I swapped it in and it she started first turn! All the warning lights have gone too. :) I SO thought there was some other problem, but guess the cold and age had finally taken toll on the battery. Thanks so much for...

Any recommendations for a new battery make / model? (thanks for taking time to respond)

no, but should it not start with the jump cables from the running Polo ?

Hi, car has been idle for 1 month, and -7C last night. Turned over 2 or 3 times this morning, then felt like the battery was flat. Hooked up a VW Polo to the battery and got this weird clicking / wont start. There is a message right at the start of the video about a Special Program fault - and...
