So I replaced the battery (after eventually freeing the locking bolt). However issues remain. Parking brake failure errors, screen wash opens glove box, DSC error, gearbox, etc. Car drives fine and sometimes the errors clear for a short while. Rechecked CJB and no sign of corrosion for the 2 loom plugs/sockets. Tom

Thanks again Julie Tom

Thanks for the quick replies. It is used most days and been on long runs of 300 miles recently. It was the screen washer opening the glove box that concerned me most. Could that be caused by a battery on the way out? I have had the car 5 years and not replaced it. Tom

Hi 2011 Xf pre facelift screen washer button opens glove box and poor stream to windscreen. I have read previous posts on similar issues and understand water ingress may be a problem. I checked the central junction box in footwell for signs of corrosion but all okay on C5 connector. Also getting spurious errors about parking brake fault/gearbox/no DSC. Could this be a battery problem? Thanks for any advice
