Alternator on its way out probably - not charging the battery.

What voltage do you get across the battery with and without the engine running? Does the votage increase markedly a few seconds after starting the engine? 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Was it parked up with you in it fiddling with buttons....?

Doesn't take long for these to go flat esp if Stereo is on or keys in ignition.
