Default Yet another problem...Battery light

If anyone's seen my previous posts, you will know we've had a few issues with our new 75 (diesel).

Today we've had yet another issue that's come up. Parked up in morrisons and once we got back into the car, the battery warning light started flashing along with intermittent flashes of a "battery charge fault". this went on for a few miles, went totally off and then the battery warning light stayed on (no fault message). we're now parked up at home and can only wait and see if it starts tomorrow.

we've had the car for about 3 weeks and use it for the work run which is about 5 miles each way. Never seen those lights on till now.

I've got no choice but to take it to a garage tomorrow as I just wouldn't know where to start. Bit worried at some of the prices I've seen if the issue is with the alternator. I don't know if this is purely a coincidence but I started using the econ function today as I found it warmed the car up quicker. fingers crossed this doesn't turn out to be an expensive repair.

thoughts appreciated
