Tiddles, purely down to the charge in the battery, yes you have started it but it needs more charge |

How long do we think it'll need to get going? I've had the engine on around 75 mins now and no progress. What I will say is I switched it off and then on again and the rear windows began to work. I was hopeful it would fix the passenger side too! |

I keep reading about battery problems with the l322. Will it be the battery or could it be that I may of left a interior light on by accident |

Mate, I see you have just acquired it, First thing - take a deep breath, you need a battery, number 1, there could be a number of things draining it e.g. are your headlight wipers in the correct position? Dont worry re windows they need a good charge before they will work properly, put a tarp over it tonight if you need to, welcome to FF ownership, definitely worth it in the end |

This is no help whatsoever, but I have mine for 4 months now and it seems like the things going wrong with it are never ending - the very first being the battery committing suicide after the fist week. At least there is no problem finding something to do at the weekends... QUID FACIUM TIBI

Done a hard reset and its seemed to of solved the problem, noticed my window wipers was set to the back ones being ok so maybe it was this? Will keep an eye on it for a few days! Thanks again |

Battery and alternator. They're usually step 1 & 2 when weird things happen. If alternator is good, take out the old one, let it sit overnight, then add a nice, good, fully charged battery and see how things are. It doesn't solve everything, but it's a place to start. Good luck. |
