can anyone help? i have a battery problem. i keep getting this repeat problem.
i have a fully charged battery and over a course of about 7 days the car slowly takes longer to turn over like the battery has not enough charge to turn the car.
once i put the battery back on i have reset all faults and i have had not any messages visually.
like i said still with no error messages the battery becomes weaker and weaker.
it is really getting frustrating now can any one help please

Once you put the battery back where or what? Don't quite understand that, do you mean you put the battery on a charger? Why don't you use one of those hand held meters and check the voltage of the battery with the car off and on, this will tell you if you have a battery or alternator problem.

i have given the battery a flu charge over night, the reading is 14.1 with the car running, i think this is what it should be,
i replaced the battery 6 months ago, since then i have replaced the alternator as it failed, would the alternator failing would this cause damage to the battery?
