New battery required

Not even a year old I had to replace the battery on my evoque Sad

Has anyone else had to change their battery ?

Mine was replaced on Saturday. It had a software update after flat battery on 4 occasions & so far as I know the battery was fine but they replaced it anyway.

Yes mine was replaced at the 1 year service. I'd never had a flat but it did give the 3 min warning if I ever turned the radio on with the engine off - even if I'd just stopped following a long drive.

RE: New battery required

Same here, as fam1x, battery not holding charge but a software update as well as a new battery was required. Lookers Park Royal comment was that there was probably an issue in setting up the battery (aka software) when the car was commissioned and over 8-9 months the degradation on the battery was too much. Thank goodness for warranty. And it wasn't in for a battery problem!

Can you recall what type of battery you had swapped out...?
