Hi mate,
is the battery old? have you had any battery problems until now? did you leave your lights on or a phone plugged into the charger?

if the answer is no to all of these, you could be in with a chance. Very Happy

good luck and let us know how you get on. 2003 Range Rover Vogue 4.4 on Gas

Why greater battery drain odds on a diesel Stan?

Reminds me of getting back from Corfu in 1988 at Gatwick.I had a mk3 escort and when I turned it over it did not even click,fortunately I met a couple of lads on holls who I agreed to run home to Birmingham and my brother,it was an easy push and bump start .Cannot bump the ff even if I had 10 lads!!

No bother started first time , had it happen 2 years ago on my td6 sat at 1 in the morning with a dead car so was a bit worried as only had this car a few months , don't know why I was fussing now or even bothered with a spare battery to jump it off just in case .
