• Ford Fiesta 1999 V-reg 1.25 Zetec-SE - Running & idling problems, DTC codes - help please 19 Jun 2010 (Forum)
    Today I used a Gunson battery/alternator tester and it reported the battery and alternator were fine including with the lights on main-beam, fan on max, rear screen heater on. Multimerter reading was 13.4v. The battery was replaced by the RAC about 4 years ago when the old one failed, I peeled off the RAC label and its branded as an Exide Expander, is this a Silver Calcium battery, is one required?
• Renault Laguna - Renault Laguna 1.9 dci starting issues. 15 May 2023 (Forum)
  My Grandads 1.9 dci 130 2005 Renault Laguna is stood alot and hasn't had much use in the last 6 months. We started getting intermittent starting issues over the last few months. We replaced the battery for brand new and today I have put a brand new starter motor on it. It still refuses to start 90% of the time.  Checking battery voltage, with no card in the slot its' between 12.4 and 12.5v  As soon as I put the card in the slot which does all it's vehicle checks (abs, airbags, starts the glow plugs) the volts drop to 11.4 to 11.3v.

• Any - Electric vehicles - how often would you change? 12 May 2020 (Forum)
   No EGR/DPF/DMF or moving parts in an ICE. There are stories of early Leafs doing 300k+ as taxis with minimal battery degradation and that will only improve as battery tech moves on.   Assuming that we’re still buying and owning cars in 20 odd years (rather than renting them/sharing them as and when needed), I think my frequency of changing cars will only decrease.
• Toyota Auris Touring Sports 2014 model year. - Toyota hybrid flat battery problems 9 Jun 2017 (Forum)
  Whereupon I enquired and was told the car did not have an alternator! and that I would need to trickle charge the parallel battery (as opposed to the high voltage drive assist hybrid bat.) it was 26 hrs. before (my) Halfords charger's light turned from yellow to green!  The car was passed to our Son-in-law who has had no further issues (he uses it on a daily basis).
