Start a New Topic....

Down below the text enter box is a button 'Manage Attachments' click this....

A new window will appear with some file selection boxes....click 'Browse' next to one of the boxes.....then select your photo click ok...

If you have more than one, click 'Browse' next to the next empty box and repeat....

Then lower down in this new window is the 'UPLOAD' button, click this and wait a short while...your attachments will be uploaded..... you can then close this window....

Then submit the forum post....

Hope that makes it as clear as mud...!!

you will have to do this on an image editor (like MSPaint or Gimp or Photoshop et al) to reduce the image size to a more managebale one.

You will then be able to upload from there....

Ones is a YUSA Battery...!!!

The other looks to be an old Motorola GSM Mobile Phone device for an In-Car telephone system....

My previous 1996 E38 7 Series 750iL had a Motorola Phone system fitted with a handset in the centre armrest and the GSM device looked very similar to that tucked behind a panel in the boot....

HI SAINT V8
Spot on
I have just traced the ancillary wiring etc and indeed it was part of an in -car phone system, the battery was part of the system and i believe was continually being charged (maybe as a back-up?) I am hoping that this was the culprit in draining my battery over a 5/6 day period/
