Hi guys,
Firstly I hope this is the right section!
Anyway, I'm having issues whereby my battery is going flat very easily. I don't use my car daily so occasionally it has gone flat naturally which is acceptable however lately it has been rather haphazard! For instance I started the car, drove around for about 40mins and then got some petrol, after this I went 2mins down the road and stopped the car (and engine) for 2mins outside a shop with the radio and my lights on. Went to start her up and it was flat again!
Took it to my mechanic who said the battery seems to be charging weirdly with the readings jumping about so said I should probably look into a new battery. Does this seem accurate? He was unable to identify other issues.
Now, which battery is best and where can I get one?
Cheers!
