    Okay sounds good. I'll order a new one. I'm thinking Bosch... Do you have recommendations? Thanks for your help thus far. Will keep updating.

    I just remembered that I filmed the whole process, and now I can confirm that yes, the voltage did indeed jump to 14V when the car was started. So I guess that confirms that my charging system is working.

    Hi there, yes at Kwik fit. Posted the result 2 comments ago. Just check the comment previous to the one of mine that you just replied to. Thank you! 😄

    When I did the multimeter test, from what I recall it did jump to 14 ish volts when I got my brother to start the car... From what I recall. I'm happy to do this test again to make sure.

    Hi all, So I got my battery tested by Kwik Fit, however, I took the battery manually (on bus!) and so it was tested whilst not plugged into my car. It's a fail according to them and I've attached the printouts of the 2 tests they ran. Point to note is though, I charged the battery using one of those mains chargers, and it only took it to 12.8V (pic attached). So, in your esteemed opinions, is the battery really knackered and in need of a change?

    That's a very good point. My brother came round with his is250, and I did a quick battery 'swap' (I just connected my cables to his battery using jump leads). But the problem was the same but worse, with even slower steering wheel position movement. Not sure if this bears any relevance. So I guess my best bet is to take my battery to a mech who can test it, hmmm.

    I've got a multimeter, do you know what to look for? Should I test it while car is off or on? Thanks

    Okay I've just done an OBD scan and it came out with a whole bunch of codes. But hopefully someone can identify the root cause!

    That's very helpful thanks! Ive also got a check tire pressure warning from before all this. Another thing I noticed is that my steering wheel doesn't move into position as fast when turning on.

    Hi. This has just started happening, and sometimes I'm left stranded at traffic lights if I put my gears into P, and then into D again. İt won't move till I switch off car and then on again. What's going on? I'm worried. Thanks in advance

    I did this, and it fixed the problem. But 6 weeks later, the problem is back. What gives? No idea. Maybe I need new motors? Anyone know where I can get them?

    Excellent guide. Where can I get the replacement cogs from? Are there model numbers for them?
