Hi. Hi have a 03 2.4d xc90. The dash keeps telling me i have a low battery. This happens if my lights are on or just today, when the ac is going for it trying to cool the car down.

I correct it by going a speed suitable for 2nd or 3rd gear, and get the revs up. The lights then get brighter or, today the ac gets load and cold.
Happens nearly every start if lights are needed or it is hot in the car. Does anyone know what might be causing this. It had a new battery last November and alternator about 1.5 years ago.

Any thoughts are welcome.
Thanks
David
