FKLGLS 44 Posted February 18, 2009 Funny that. My saloon has been in the garage since last October and the battery has snuffed it. Doesn't matter how long I leave it on charge it won't hold, I suspect at least one cell is knackered. On the other hand, my estate which has been left outside since last October starts and runs fine after a few gentle revs. I would have thought that the garaged car would have fared better, but then again I don't know how old the battery was on fkl when I bought it and that was nearly two years ago. So maybe a comparison is unfair. BTW Martin, I've just read this whole thread again - makes for great reading and a tribute to you Sir ! :angry: :cheers: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daz_mk2 0 Posted April 27, 2009 I will give you £6 if you chuck the P100 in with the deal :ninja: Is the battery flat again or is it turning over but not starting? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
