Went to start the ol' SL2 and it barely cranked and gave up. Another battery so soon? It's one year old and new alternator is around 6 months old. Battery was not replaced when the alternator died so that may be the answer. I know the heat has been bad this year (heat gauge hit the 3/4 and touched the red more than a few times), but the strange thing was some relay-like clatter between the seats even continuing when the key was off.
Anyone ever hear this relay clatter before when the battery went - or is it something new to worry about?
