Are the terminals good and tight? Also be looking at earth leads and wires around the battery if it only showed up since battery change, I was told before removing batteries in these new alloytec is to keep power to them as you change battery's as things like this can happen.
Keeping power to the car is just to save memory that is it.

Battery is brand new, but this fault has really only showed up since replacing it...
You need to check voltage drop from the battery to the jump points then battery to alt then fuse box then starter. You should have maybe .3-.4v drop across the battery cables max. If you get anything lower into the 12's running turn the A/C on and check with head lights on and engine fans running if it drops lower then you have issues.

Solved! Replaced number 6 injector, sweet as. $72.00 from my local Holden dealer. I think it's now running the best it ever has, since I've owned it
