Is your alternator OK Sy ? There've been a no. of failures the last couple of years - mine included

My alternator was one of the upgraded ones and was only fitted <2000 miles ago. So I hope it's OK. If it is the alternator, I certainly won't be there as I ain't going under the car this week.
Something is draining the battery though as, even with a buggered alternator, I'd expect the thing to start with a brand new battery just put in...





Thanks for your time and effort Graham
Otherwise it's back to plan 1 and I'll drive.
