cjay1 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 depends how flat it is. generally under normal conditions it only charges when moving with foot off the gas. (smart regenerative charging) however if it is fairly flat it will start charging continuously. if you want to top up battery just get yourself a charger.

GingerFlame Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Yes leaving the car idling with charge the battery. Ford's are fitted with a smart charge system so unless the battery requires charging, the car won't charge it. Some of the newer cars are fitted with regenerative braking, although these obviously still have an alternator. www.yorkshiredetailing.co.uk - approved resellers of the Highest quality detailing & Valeting supplies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
