I had this on an older rrs a 2 yr old battery and i left an obd connector connector and forgot about and when i came back to it a week later she was totally flat (i dot use the car much) so i charged it up and all seemed fine for a while but after a few short trips around town and then back home the next day it was flat again alt was fine as 14v whilst is was running but i think it only had about 350 amps so not enough to start it, lucky i had the receipt and got it swapped over under warranty

Use a good Auto electrician. Main dealer is a waste of time as I kept getting "Low battery, start engine" message. Main dealer said there was nothing wrong, use the car more (very technical) Took it to Auto electrician who diagnosed a parasitic drain & had the car for 3 days until he found it. Not working on the car for 3 days, as they tried something, let the car go to sleep then see if that was it, so bill was not as horrific as it first sounded. Auto electrician is the way to go, horses for courses. |
