You may be right Confused Thumbs Up
I'd still try and have the alternator changed under warranty.

Got a call today saying they'll change the battery under warranty but not alternator as they don't think its that. They're keeping it overnight to make sure it starts ok in morning after new battery and to explore all of the reduced engine performance, brake warnings etc.... Also just noticed what might be a small oil leak on driveway from front nearside of engine bay Neutral

Main dealer rang me yesterday and told me that they plugged the diagnostic tool into the car and the reason for the reduced engine performance was because the water pump (connected to the supercharger I think/ mechanic said it was a known issue on the SC) had failed. They've replaced the water pump under warranty as well.

If they are replacing the pump are they checking the cabling as i believe some SC's were cabled up wrong and there may even be a TSB for it as well?? FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's
