update:
The brilliant PinballDave helped me with his vida/dice – a must buy in the future. Got a jumpstart and the car ran perfectly the next day… out driving for at least 3 hours, stopping and starting etc The MPG is still poor and getting worse so the throttle body clean didn’t resolve that..
Unfortunately 3 days later, back to where I started, lights on, clicking noise but not enough juice to start - I was planning on getting the battery checked but it didn’t start so it has sat outside!
This morning tried a jump start from an rcz and then a starter pack (this maybe dead also) – nothing..all lights off and alarm/door wont set..
Think the vida readout said something about the alternator but the starter pack showed the battery had some juice in it…confused..
