Hi, first post, go easy.
Been googling battery replacement for my Mum's 2016 Fabia, which has led me here. The car has occasional charging warnings flagging up, so I purchased a new battery to fit, which is still sitting in the garage as I may not actually need it after reading some of the content re the st/st system flagging up charging warnings. It shows no other signs of a lay battery, charging voltage around 13.8-14.0 at idle.
So, the thing to do would seem to be to disconnect the st/st system? Can I then fit a bog standard battery rather than the £100+ item sitting in the garage? Will this lead to any other charging issues/warnings? I despise st/st systems personally, and have it disabled on all my other vehicles.
Thanks in advance 🙂
