On starting in the cold (less then 0degrees outside) I get the System Fault, special programmes not available warning. once the engine is started this goes, and I do indeed have special programmes. Just wondering if this is a low voltage thing as well?

Cold weather is not good for batteries, could be an early warning that your batteries are starting to suffer. Club Pie n Pea

Yeah i had the stuttering start and Special programs off warning - re started it and it was fine.

It was Censored freezing at -5 but my battery is also coming uop to 5 years old.

Is it an easy job to replace or will it take a techhy? Does it Censored up the radio code?

I got that the last few days when it's been cold, suspected it was low battery.

New battery has sorted it 8)
