VW Golf 1987 1.8
I went to start up today anf the battery was flat I put a tester on it and the voltage was 2.3 or so?I called CAA (Canadian Triple A) but couldnt work out if it was my fault did I leave something on Saturday (the last time I drove the car) The battery was new in January so I thought it had to be me?somehow.
The driver confirmed the alternator was OK and jump started the car I drove around for an hour so Got back home and turned it off and then restarted it without any hesitaion, this was around 5 'oclock or so. Around 11.00 pm I decided to see if it would still start and went out and tried it. It was almost dead again, wouldnt turn over even, the oil light came on but that was it. nothing else worked.
I looked in the trunk to see if the light was on there. It wasnt.
Any ideas?What are the chances of it being the battery? Could it go duff after 2 months?
thanks in advance
Michael
