M9O OEY Posted August 21, 2010 Posted August 21, 2010 Hi, my car battery has failed twice In a wk but both times the mrs had borrowed the car . Today she told me she unlocked the doors forgot to use the immobilizer fob tried to start the engine and the battery was dead. I then had to jump the battery,I use the car daily and it's never happened to me, I'd driven 30 miles today before she borrowed the car so the battery should of been fully charged. Do u think I just need a new battery ? is it somethin to do with forgettin to use the fob and tryin to start the engine ?or should I ban her from driving the car ?thanks for any replies Newbie Quote

ATTAK Z Posted August 21, 2010 Posted August 21, 2010 How old is the battery ? Mines 6.5 and hasn't let me down yet but I'm thinking I should replace it before winter Quote
AlexZ Posted August 21, 2010 Posted August 21, 2010 Hi mate, to find out if it is your partner I guess the easiest thing to do is use the car yourself for a week or so. If the battery is fine blame her if not then get a battery load test from you local motor factor or Kwit Fit etc.. Alex Quote
