So my Flying Spur has been acting up lately, especially after I left it parked at DXB long term for about 8 days. Came back to a completely dead battery, which I thought was just the heat draining it, but even after a jump start and driving around for an hour, the dashboard lights started flickering and the air suspension warning popped up. Took it to a local garage in Al Quoz and they said I probably need proper bentley electrical system and battery diagnostics because these cars go crazy when the voltage drops even a little. Has anyone else in Dubai dealt with this? I saw a page about battery replacement on Battery Zone UAE but I'm wondering if a simple battery swap will fix the random electrical glitches or if there's something deeper draining it while parked. Really don't want to end up at the dealership unless it's absolutely necessary.
