I purchased a 07 Bentley GTC about six months ago. When I bought the car it only came with valet key. Went to Bentley and got a new set of keys. After I picked up the car, I was not able to open trunk from inside of the car or by pushing the B. I can only open trunk with key remote. Yesterday I went in the car and the car starts to go crazy. Radio come on and off, the top wouldn’t go down. All the lights are flickering on and off. Now the top won’t come back up, I can’t open trunk with the remote anyone. Headlights and tail lights are off. Can someone please help me.

 

Start with the batteries. Make sure they are good.
Low voltage will make these cars have you cussing and ready to shoot it.

 

But then when you replace the battery and the car magically clears its own faults and everything is perfect again you forgive it.

 

Is it on a trickle charger ?
Is it parked indoors out of rain ?

Have you done any drain maintenance?

 

The car is park outside and it did rain the last two days. Can the rain affect the car and no I haven’t done any drain maintenance on the car.

 

Ok .
Trickle charge is a must ....check out solar panel chargers if mains power is unavailable.
Handy for airports btw .
Feels like primarily a LHS battery weakness
Water ingress on the micro switch hood wiring is gonna happen inevitably with a cab parked out side permanently....more so if on a gradient as water will run into places it did not when new or in a car wash as they are flat surfaces so it passes .
Age means seals are not as good as when new etc ....hence an inevitably with a not brand new cab .

Anyhow as far as the other water ingress and general drain stuff ........useful in the UK climate here .......

Hey, thank you for the reply. I went to the car this morning and it wouldn’t start.

 

Perhaps take the advice.
