To keep those interested posted, checking just now, so 12 hours after disconnecting the charger, battery read 12.26v at the terminals at the jumpstart terminal. Not so good. Power the car to ACC and that dropped rapidly in the USB panel to 12.0 and then 11.8v. Power off and back on the jumpstart terminal and its 12.0-12.2v after a few mins. I'd have more expected a stable 12.6-12.8v, ideally but then this is an early 2019 model so the battery is 4 years old now.So I guess that pretty much declares the 12v aux battery is fading away. So far not had any issues with using the car irregularly but glad that I carry a 12v Lithium jumper kit in the boot as I may find myself needing that one day.Out of interest, what are others seeing at the jumpstart terminal on "good" batteries when the car has been left for a few hours/overnight?
