Battery Flat

Mark_Dj

My battery is flat on my Astra Mk5 Sri. It's been about a week and a half now since I was out in it, is that about right for not using it? The doors opened up this morning with the remote but it's pretty flat as I have no interior light on.

Mine hasn't been started since last Monday morning. Just been outside, and it started on the first turn of the key.

Well mine is ok again now, had it out for a quick run. I have not used mine with the snow, been sat on the drive since the snow started.

sounds like you need a battery soon Mark, a battery should last longer than that without being used

Last time I checked my battery vaults it was reading good, high. Thought it would have been a good battery :eh:

the maintenance free vauxhall batteries are harder to diagnose as i had one that would die if i left the itnernal light on for like an hour then if i get the car jump started the battery would be fine after a quick run

i replaced it in the end as you get a good deal with vauxhall on trade club
