I’ve just changed my big battery and I was fully expecting to change the Aux also. However when I looked I realised my car has a big battery and a capacitor rather than the AUX battery. My car was registered December 2015 but a 2016 model which is when they first started using the capacitor. 2016 Yulong White L494 AB/DYN 3.0SDV6 |

I could well be wrong but I think you may find with the earlier RRS2 only the 4.4 TDV8 and cars built for cold climate market's had the Aux battery fitted.

Sounds reasonable. My RRS is a 2006 model, so a bit different, but I know that manufacturers have introduced monitors in the ECU for the battery condition, which could be why your dealer is saying that it needs a "reset". The ECU need to know that the battery has changed.

Stick it on a ctek conditioner mate, my car had no start/stop and an airbag warning light. I was going to replace the battery but got the ctek mxs 5.0 instead and it fixed both the issues |
