Various problems, all electrical. Weird warning lights and codes. As well as other odd functioning switch logic (including seat/steering wheel heater switches which were sometimes non responsive, and heaters were either on or off according to their state at startup), sometimes unresponsive radio, Bluetooth or other systems, and a buzz in stereo when lights were turned on.
Replaced radio head unit which is also a computer. The head unit fixed some of this, but now there are new codes and the buzz and still some unresponsive switches. It will be going back again at some point soon.

Battery had a cold start problem. It tested bad and was replaced under warranty.
