Bit of a result, took the new battery (a 66amp GO Battery) back to dealer today, and they've swopped it for a genuine 70amp Vx battery.

But only when I threatened them with Vx Customer Care.

Nice one...  

Sure sounds like the battery isn't holding charge, with luck it should be sorted now ..

I told them the hydrometer wasn't working, manager said, Doesn't mean anything.

I said Why do they fit it then?

He said All we can do is check the battery, if it's a good battery, end of story.

I knew what it was going to read before I took it in - Yup - good battery.

That's it then said the manager.

No it isn't said I, it's only just over a month old, (I lied here) I said I've got batteries on other vehicles that are several years old and still glowing green.

Nothing we can do - said he.

So, says I, do I contact Vx Customer Care then?

Just a minute, he says, I'll have a word with the warranty manager.

Came back with the new battery, saying, We can't claim it back off Vx, but in good faith, we'll replace it.

Couldn't get out of there fast enough when I saw it was a genuine Vx battery,shrink wrapped as well, (£70 on TC) as opposed to £49 on a Go battery.
