Yes it was a battery problem all along, as we all suspected from the start. The ABS pump was a red herring.

Have you had the battery coded to the car yet? You will need to in order to get all functions working properly.

As the driver of an electric car that is reliant on a lithium-ion battery for motive power I don't believe Li-ion technology is inherently rubbish, however it does require a sophisticated BMS (battery management system) to ensure safe, reliable, and durable operation. I doubt that the simple charging circuits on a 12 year old car will have that capability, so it seems to me that to fit a 12 volt Li-ion battery to the A3 is both wastefully expensive and a retrograde step in terms of performance. A plain lead-acid battery would do the job adequately.

Hi Cliff its not a LI-ION battery LION is the brand and believe me they aint any good.

Oops. Silly me. I read so many topics elsewhere concerning electric cars I have got used to mispelling of Li-ion by many folk.
