Replacing AGM main battery - Updating the Vehicle?

I’ve decided to replace the main battery in my L405 5.0 SC, as I’m getting low battery warnings when not used for a few days and it still has the original 2015 battery fitted, so likely time for a new one for peace of mind / not getting stranded.

Is it possible to do the vehicle update to flag the new battery using the IID tool, or is this only something a dealer / specialist can do? if I fit the battery without updating (or at least delay it until convenient) what’s the impact of driving the vehicle in the meantime?

Thanks Thumbs Up

I used to have battery low warnings regularly. The car always started fine however. I replaced both batteries in my SDV8 and performed the reset with the IID. I haven't had a warning since Thumbs Up Kev
