It was on 12.86v after I disconnected the Ctek at seven yesterday, so it had had four hours to settle to that 12.69v.
I've never had a car with a drain before, so this is all new to me. For all I know there may not be a problem; all I can say for sure is that after the car had been standing, not run, for a week, with occasional use of a 12v charger while I was playing with the audio, the AGM battery was discharged to the point where nothing electrical worked until it was jump-started. If I'd thought of it when the battery was flat I'd have checked the actual battery voltage, but I was in a hurry, and didn't think of that. I would now...
Then, after about thirty-five minutes/twenty miles' driving over to Terry Gates for the tailgate to be sorted, and after about six hours being worked on over there, and three days there altogether, it started for a test drive with no difficulty.
I'll keep checking, but if there is a drain, on present indications it's no more than an annoyance until I can get it sorted. I won't sell the other ML until it is, though.
More anon...
