Quick questions for those with the skills.
Currently not doing a huge amount of miles and the battery is hovering around 30-40% charge according to vcds and my mates battery tester. Battery tester says health of battery is 100%.
even after an hour drive it’s not much more than 50%. the other weekend was out for a 2-3 hour drive it didn’t get much more than 60%.
I reckon the smart charging system is keeping this low, maybe too low, for efficiency purposes. Worse thing is if I don’t use the car for a few days or a week it drops to 20-25% charge and occasionally I get a low battery warning on dash. Dashcam only works for a couple of hours after parking and it’s should go on for a couple of days if the battery had more charge.
is there a way to code the module so the car charges the battery to a higher level?
