Haha easy when you know the answer hey.
Car started without any issues at all twice today. Don’t want to jinx it completely yet but it’s looking promising! Could have cost me hundreds with Nissan.

Hi. I had my battery replaced (one company said the battery was fine but I took it to an electrical specialist who said the battery was knackered) they replaced the battery and everything was fine. Then started getting intermittent faults. It was a loose cable connecting the battery. The recovery guy disconnected the battery for 5 minutes and then reconnected and everything been absolutely fine since. I would go to an electrical specialist and get them to test the battery again. If it’s good then disconnect it and tighten all connections up. Hope this helps

Sorry to hear about your car troubles. It can be really frustrating when these issues pop up. I know this reply might come a bit late, but for future reference, it's always a good idea to have the contacts of a reliable roadside assistance service. They can often diagnose and fix minor issues on the spot, saving you time and money on towing or garage fees.
In cases like yours, where the problem is intermittent and hard to pin down, it can be especially tricky. Sometimes, these gremlins in the electrical system can be a real puzzle.
Your voltage reading seems fine, but it's still worth getting a thorough check by a professional if the problem persists. Hopefully, your usual garage can find the root cause and get your car back to its reliable self.
