There is a software upgrade that sorts this problem out, from what I can make out the battery monitor is set too high and the slightest drop in voltage triggers the message.. Check with the steatlers who service the car, they should be able to tell if the update has been done. If the upgrade has been done then you'll be needing a new battery

Thanks for that, I'll give them a call on Monday. Loving the car, smoother and quieter than the 3.6 with some extra poke when needed, a proper luxury car.

It seems there might be a little bit more to the story. I drove the car for 3 hours on Saturday morning and parked it up around 12:30. I then went to the car just before 6am this morning (Monday) and it wouldn't unlock. I can see that the red light around the hazard light switch is on, but it appears that the battery is dead.

That doesn't sound good for the battery.... still better to find out it's a dud a week after you brought it than 7 months down the road, at least it should be the Dealers pain to sort it Yesterday I couldn't spell Engineer... Today I are one!

It sound like it is just the battery. After that was changed and the fault codes all cleared there was one which came straight back EGR fault A. So it sounds like there is an EGR valve issue as well. Also the lens is missing from the camera on the passenger side door which means it just doesn't work properly.
