Found it, and checked voltage.

Voltage is 14.1 to 14.3 while stationary as well as driving, stays at 14.3 when DSC warning comes on.
Car also slows down as though the hand brake is suddenly applied - revs (at 40 km/H) are around 2000, but car suddenly slows - revs remain the same!

Update: Took the car for a longer drive - 5 Kms - to shops and back.

When the car slows down, the speedometer and Tacho do not change - they seem stuck on whatever valued they were at when the event occurred.

The slow-down stops occurring when the car has been running for a while - warmed up? I let the car warm up for about 2 minutes, then started driving. Slow-down happened again within 500 meters, but after I stopped to turn on my phone speed app and drove off again, it did not happen again. The 4X4 error light remained on.

After my shopping, the slow-down did not re-occur on the way back.

When I start the car, the 4X4 error light is off, but comes on again within 100 meters, blinking at first, then steady after about another 100 meters or so.

Also, the right turn blinker does not self-cancel, even after a tight turn. However the left blinker is cancelled after a wide left turn - probably the fitting of the clock-spring?


Could all of these symptoms be related to the clock spring? Only started after I changed it.
