HELP !
I know I should be on the D3 site but as I frequent this site I thought I'd try here first.

just spoke to me dad who has a D3 and he left the ignition key in over night and turns out now the battery is flat. hes had it on charge but although light etc work the engine wont start - something to do with the immobiliser I guess.

any suggesstions please ?

thanks

Pure guess but has your dad been given an immobiliser override code ?

Defenders have one (with a very strange method of using it !) so may be the D3 has one as well.

If it is the immobiliser the override code should sort it - if it has one.

seems trickle charging over night is no good?

jump leads have solved the problem


thanks bob.
