Hi.

So, ive just moved cars in the driveway before the wife starts a video conference and I head to the Hospital for a delightful covid swab test (no symptoms but exposed at work last week when a patient thought to be negative turned out to be positive!) and the Kodiaq warned that battery level low and I should charge it by driving for a bit.

Thing is the car has been sitting for only 6 days since coming home from my last shift... That seems a bit short to me if Im honest...

I do have a factory fitted towbar and the only other thing plugged in would be the dash cam but struggling to see how that would drain the battery so quick... Certainly wasnt an issue with my xtrail before getting the Kodiaq in Feb.

Is the 2019 version also at risk of the battery/module issue?

Cheers in advance for your thoughs.

Really? As I said, never an issue with the xtrail and it had a stop/start system too...
Oh well, will need to make sure its driven once a week now or unplug the dash cam.

Many thanks

Second that, I had mine left for too long and the battery went flat and couldn't even start the car anymore. Was used to my other car where the sockets turned off when locking the car :?

Ah, I bet that explains it... Suspect the Xtrail didnt power the socket when engine off.

Cheers
