hmm, any special tools or things to be aware of when doing it? I did see a video but it wasn't comprehensive

When we had it on VIDA the fault codes that could be relevant are ECM-0625 'Alternator Signal too low' and ECM-0380 'Glow plug relay Faulty signal'

If with the fresh battery the engine kept turning on the starter motor, but didn't fire up then that is likely to be related to the glow plugs. The history shows that this error has been around for the last 38 operation cycles.

If you run the starter motor for longer than ten seconds or so without letting it cool down, the motor and it's electrical cables will get very hot and could start to smell.

The alternator code had only two start cycles logged, so that might be due to the flat battery that had just been jump started putting a bit of strain on the alternator. But I think it's the same as the P0625 so you might still have alternator issues.

There were a few other 'Voltage too low' codes on various modules, but none of them had any previous history so I would tend to ignore them and just say that they were triggered from the flat battery.

Not sure about the P1935 doesn't seem to tie up with any of the logged codes on VIDA.
