Hi all, Just an update, I brought this ODB scan tool from Amazon https://www.amazon.com.au/Veepeak-OBDCheck-Bluetooth-Diagnostic-Supports/dp/B076XVQMVS/ref=sr_1_9?sr=8-9 And signed up to carista for a month. Turns out the car was coded to an EFB battery with 55Ah, so i have re coded the car to AGM & 60ah. Haven't had the stop start warning since :) Also turned on the auto lock above 15km/h and auto lock when leaving the car. So happy days Gaz

Hi Nat16, We brought the car 2nd hand about a year ago. we have done 12,000km since then. It already had the AGM battery in it so I suspect the original battery was replaced at some stage. We live in Canberra so temp range is -8 to 40. This morning I went for a 10 minute drive to the shops and back and stop start worked fine with no warning message. Car has been sitting for 6 hours since then. I just put the multi meter on the Battery and it was 12.69V. Put the battery charge on (set to AGM setting) and it showed full charged in about 5 minutes. re check the multi meter 10 minutes later and it was at 12.86v. So at this stag seeing I have road side assistance and a jumper starter in the boot. I will just continue to enjoy driving the Fabia :) Thanks as always to the great members in this forum. Gaz

Thanks breeze Pete 😀 It will save me some money and time which is always a good thing Gaz

Hi breeze Pete existing battery is 60ah https://www.batteriesonline.com.au/72/battery-details/Lion-455TAGM So I assume it should be ok to replace without coding? Thanks Gaz
