Battery problems? (Read 549 times)

GrahamK Junior Member Offline Posts: 57 Shropshire Gender: Drives: 2002 Omega 2.6 CDX	Battery problems? 28. Mar 2011 at 13:43 I have a strange problem with my car battery going totally flat. some times it last a few days and starts, at other times after 2 days, not even dash lights!. Is it simply a buggered battery or could I have a current drain, possibly intermittent, somewhere. Any ideas? Regards, Graham.
