Wolfey, you need an 096 Silver.


That's it........
Went back to the motor factor.and explained the problem, upon noticing what car the battery was fitted to, the ph'er was more than happy to do a free exchange for the Bosch S5008.
ABS Stability Control still off though.. frown Do you normally have to wait for the bcm to read a full charge? Currently on 2%

yes been reading up on them - seems a lot have suffered from this.
ordered an OBD2 reader from tinternet to see what codes its thrown.

The auto box in manual mode keeps misbehaving as well whilst the abs is off... think I'll leave it in auto.
