It’s usually the alternator failing to charge that can tend to bring the battery light on cheers buddy makes a change for it to be a easy fix for me lol
@@Yodaracing1 you’re right, I had an old 2001 BMW 3 series about 4 years ago, it died on me, the battery light came on, and the stereo went off (while driving) dash lights dimmed, headlights dimmed, just coming through studley, cars behind flashing their lights as my rear lights were probably none existent lol then it conked out right outside the little garage in studley by Barley mow pub. They were good enough to jump me, to get me to the garage carpark, yes it was indeed the alternator👍🏻 I assumed it would come on for a dying battery too, obviously not then. You learn something new everyday 😁
Make sure the dash loghts are goon out when uv locked it at night theres a light that stays on for bit then goes off sometimes that stays on n can drain ya battery
Bro, better film this than nothing. I have battery issue few days ago. I bought also Exide. If this one next time dead don't forget me, buy again Exide but not Excell modell. Choose EFB or AGM. 100.000x far way better everything with it. I bought my first Exide AGM 70ah 760A and after 5years it's dead. Not bad.
Anyone confirm for me at 1:45 on start up the whistle noise , is that the oil diaphragm that needs changing mine does this , goes after 30 seconds or so , cheers
The curse can get lost I will crush the car 🤣🤣 and yea it’s just the time of the year I guess went through a battery on the corsa the Astra and now the focus lol
@@Yodaracing1same happened to me 2 weeks ago. To many short journeys for me and the cold weather finished it off. A new battery and fingers crossed all good so far
Cold weather will kill any battery that's on It's way out, Glad It wasn't something serious.
Yea agreed mate and me to mate for once lol🤣
I’m Glad it’s just a battery mate and yes them batteries are quite awkward to fit lol 👍🏼
Haha cheers mate 🙌
Surprised the battery light didn’t come on at all? Usually that comes on to indicate the battery is bad. Glad it was an easy fix anyway 👍🏻

Use the car more or use a C tek battery conditioner
@@vinny03 what’s one of them?
@@Yodaracing1 Google C Tek MXS 5.0. And read up on it.
Was the van a 12v battery? Always check 1st
Yea mate it’s only a vivaro 1.6
7 minutes long 😟when are the upgrades coming
Soon as I can afford to mate I’m in a minimum wage job so money is tight for mods as u can imagine but they will be coming
Anyone confirm for me at 1:45 on start up the whistle noise , is that the oil diaphragm that needs changing mine does this , goes after 30 seconds or so , cheers
Isn’t oil diaphragm was just turbo whistling best way to tell is pull the dipstick if the noise stops then it’s the diaphragm
Ok pal I’ll try that after see if it goes , cheers for the help 🙌
the curse returns 😂😂 joking aside this happened to me the other day cold weather just kills them sometimes unfortunately
