Default Issues with flickering lights

Good morning all,

I have a 2011 C30 D3 and have recently noticed issues with flickering lights, worst affected seem to be the back lights to the floating console and the overhead interior lights.

When the car is turned off these work fine without flickering, but when the car is idling these flicker noticeably and when you rev the engine they go much dimmer.

I initially thought it could be the alternator but it is putting out about 14.09V loaded and about 14.18V unloaded so that would not appear to be at fault. I am at a complete loss as to what else could cause it.

Any advice would be gratefully received.
