Voltage looks a bit low to me at idle.

Actually I make you right there Kds2, it should ideally be up in the 14s if I remember correctly,
Had new battery and Alternator in April last year ?

Your battery is discharged below 12.5v, so no its not right. The good news is, its highly likely that this is causing your issues. The control modules demand a strong voltage on start up and with those values they dont have it. How new is the battery?
Given that at idle you are barely seeing 12.5v I'd suspect the alternator or a bad connection in the charging circuit. A good alternator gives 14.7v at idle. 2007 Vogue TDV8 in Zermatt Silver with Charcoal

Had the Ctek on overnight and checked battery terminals (Ok) then spent an hour checking all fuses , checked and cleaned any other terminals I could get at, battery read 12.6 and on idle 14.6 😀👍🏻😀👍🏻, took it to a Indi who put the snap on diagnostic reader and came up with the same readings (and crank was 10.6 iirc? ), he cleared down the historical faults and only the adaptive warning lights symbol remained so he went into that and checked and removed it then sent me on my way said to keep an eye on things and call back on Monday and he will take another look to see if anything re appears,

One thing he wasn’t sure about and was going to look into was a “Drivers utility Module” fault showing on his reader so any of you gents know what that might be ?


Thinking back I had been trying out the remote Fuel Burning Heater just to see if it still worked🔥🙏🏻 in the week so this may have used a bit more battery than usual?.
