Sounds about right Phil. Absorbent glass mat (AGM) batteries would be clearly identified.

Depends upon which battery you have Phil.

Just to say thanks for the awesome input . I will ponder my options over Christmas. Looks like I need hinges ,correct grill and wipers or just buy the correct bonnet . Happy Xmas everyone

My solution is the same as Joe's, This LINK takes you to my own solution to the S-Type battery problem. It also links to show you what the C-Tek charging point looks like in my car

Hi Phil, Wise words from Joe as always. I have found that on some cold mornings I get the "Parkbrake Fault" notice appearing, which I cured by disconnecting the battery for a short time, and then resetting everything. I seem to have cured it by putting my battery on charge on a weekly basis as I don't do many long runs in the winter. I leave the battery connected while I charge it and did know about the vent tube ---- it is always useful to check it though. My charger switches off when the battery is fully charged. Regards, Peter.
