Well, I don't know what a clampmeter does but...
I've changed my FSR on fri 12th, went 4 days abroad (main fuses off by security).
I've used the car almost every day since then and did not have the chance to do extensive tests. Only done a few and saw once that voltage was still dropping, and once that voltage was not.
What I don't know is if a battery has to be around 12.6 all the time or if it can drop around 1.40 without this being anormal (new battery, 90A, no specific brand) 2008 TDV8 VOGUE - Buckingham Blue on Sand

I realize that I haddn't got back here. THe problem was solved by changing the FSR!
For some reason, I received a PM and my mailer spammed it (so just discovered today). 2008 TDV8 VOGUE - Buckingham Blue on Sand

Bart thanks for updating this post glad you replaced the FSR

Been reading the dead battery saga with interest as my recently purchased 2008 TDV8 Vogue has suffered a discharged battery overnight on 3 separate occasions in the last month. Have a new Bosch 110A battery on order as mine is, I think, the original so 5 years old. Do I understand that replacing the FSR has now completely cured your dead battery problems?

Yes completely solved. 2008 TDV8 VOGUE - Buckingham Blue on Sand

Excellent news and hope you now enjoy some trouble free Range Rovering

Before I rush out and buy a new FSR - did it exhibit any other symptoms?

I just get the occasional dead battery but blower and fan seem to be fine. Geoff
