I would be going batsh1t here.
Dealer sells car that has been 'tampered' with to you. Problem occurs, v-a-v the aforementioned 'tampering'. Dealer attempts to walk away from his responsibility, which was occasioned by his selling you said car in that condition. Stop it, do, you're killing me! |

Firstly, if the car is brand new, then being accused of tampering with an earth point is way out of order. Also a dodgy earth point will not discharge a battery, but it could result in various fault modes due to a voltage drop across the terminal. The first thing I would do, if I was the dealer, would be to undo the terminal, clean up and ensure I had a good electrical connection, before refitting the nut.

It's been a strange engagement. I also got asked before it had been investigated whether I'd knowingly be aware of why there might have been water ingress.....before they had looked for water ingress.
It's perhaps not intentional, but I feel the finger is firmly being pointed at me!! |

Which, for now, is why I've handed the issue over to Volvo UK. I don't have time to drive all over the country to get cars fixed. I'll give them a few days to see if they can sort this out.

Yes I agreed with you and explained why it has to be done like that. 👍
