    So my 2015 458 is playing, rather loudly, 1.25 seconds of a CD every couple of minutes - silence in between. At the same time the RHS display moves continuously between the Accept Conditions window, the Speedo and the CD window!! Even the LHS display is changing from Speedo to the double dial temp window. Pressing the buttons to the RHS display makes no difference. If it was a better audio clip than the one it insists on playing it would be less of a problem. WTF!! I love this car, but right now it's pushing me away :-(

    I start with the obvious. How old is the battery? Many and disparate electrical issues pop up on a weak battery.

    Hi Bob, brand new AGM battery installed a couple of weeks before the problem began. So Ferrari!

    No doubt the culprit is the AGM battery then.

    I would have thought 12V is 12V no matter who stores it!
