The alternator charging voltage is low & not suitable for an AGM battery which would have an open circuit voltage of 13V.

Witam. Czy posiadasz jeszcze ten tester BM580?

Mine, I can only save 3 screenshots of the screen, although the specifications state that you can record 10 screenshots. Mine can't record more than 3, and if I insist it overwrites images 1, 2 and 3 respectively. Does yours also have this problem?

Did it fail to start or what were the symptoms? My 6 year old Passat has the exact same battery but reading approx 400A. On cool mornings i get errors flashing up on the screen when cranking sometimes.

A to ładowanie nie za małe troszkę? Z tego co kojarzę w większości przypadków na uruchomionym silniku przekracza 14V
