QUOTE(KennyKB @ Jun 20 2018, 04:40 PM) Hi guys, when the blinking i-stop indication comes out that to tell you that your battery can no longer support i-stop how long should we wait before changing the battery? I can do without i-stop but I don't want to wait until I can't start the car. 1.5 months now for me. Still can start no problem. My target is 3-4 months maybe? Then only i think abt changing. Hopefully can last until then |

Good info. So 12.2V it is.. need to check my battery ASAP!If you want an "adventure", refer mine where i pushed the battery to the limit to prepare yourself : https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=86109015 Btw voltage check can be done at any workshop right? |

QUOTE(LionMY @ Jul 6 2018, 09:07 AM) Why need to buy new as any battery die within a year is cover by manufacturer under warranty. Premature failure could be due to manufacturing defects. Used that battery for 16 months. Died after 2 months since iStop started blinking.Jump start also not possible could be due to lead plates in battery shorted. |
