I've just fitted my Bosch battery today so fingers crossed it won't drain down.

Well I've just ordered a Bosch S5 020 from Car Parts 4 less for £126.19 :clap2: Hopefully that'll sort my problems out.

The battery has been on charge for a while, just checked it with a multimeter and it's showing 12.3 volts. If it's knackered would it take a charge or not ?

Unfortunately I don't have a receipt for it !

Is it knackered because something is draining it or is it just knackered though ? Don't want to put a new battery on if it's not the problem.

Just checked, it's a Halfords HB019 800cca 95ah. Is that the right battery ? Checked the battery before charging with a multimeter and it's showing 0.01 volts so is completely drained !!

Checked battery with multimeter with engine running and it was showing around 14 volts. I'm going to remove the battery today and fully charge it and then see what happens afterwards.
