Phil K 0 Posted September 1, 2005 Yes it's fine to take it out... you'd have to disconnect the car from it before you charge it anyway! Have fun :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Critical_Mass 10 Posted September 2, 2005 why do you have to wait a week before you can drive it?? Should get some sort of an award for that question mate! :idea: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul 8v 0 Posted September 2, 2005 Insurance reasons, not long to go tho! Fookin battery has died, have to take it to get it checked. For some reason my dad thought if I dissconected it it would loose all the MFA settings or something. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted September 2, 2005 You will lose all the MFA settings and trip counter reading, but you won't lose the overall mileage counter as it has a battery back up. Stick the battery on an overnight charge and check it with a meter in the morning. If it's less that 12V, one or more cells have died. Good excuse to get a big arse battery in there and not have to worry about it again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paul 8v 0 Posted September 3, 2005 insurance reasons, is age the problem. No I'm 22 so it's not too bad the thing is it's well up on standard power and i need a years no claims, which will be the start of next week! Am insuring it with Brentacre as Adrian flux couldn't get anywhere near it! Adrian flux are too closely affiliated with max power for my likings!!!

Phil K 0 Posted September 3, 2005 Brentacre were the best by far too when I got my quotes - especialy with my slightly 'colourful' driving history :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
