Battery Flat.................again!!

[Millie]

Happen again to me a couple of months ago, decided to to take the advice i received from the subaru assistance guy, and purchased a trickle charge.

Had no issues since. have a PSI unit as well and the charge seems to well after it has been left 10 days or so.

Are you only using your cars occasionally? Mine has been fine for the 3.5 months I've had it - but I do use it for the commute every day.

Mine has just been parked without even being opened for 6 weeks with no ill-effect, so it makes no sense.

Sounds like a new battery under warranty,
I always had the headlights on the WR1, and never had any problems.

The WR1 got very little use, 2 weeks sometimes it got left unused.

But no Battery Problems

Inside but the garage only has a tin roof, I have been told before that the tracker does'nt like trying to get a signal through a building ie a second storey above the garage. if it cant get a signal it tries and tries until the battery is flat. Sumo

Keep us informed with this one Lee..

A Tin Roof dosent really make a Cloaked Impreza !!

Mine's kept it a a garage with a thick concrete roof. I've not had any issues with the battery and the car's only driven for about 10 miles every week or 2 now.

I always have the radio on and quite often the lights as well.

Garage is under bedroom, so double skin walls etc. My usage cahnge vary depending on work etc. Not used as my daily drive and some times I only manage to do 2/3 miles. Had same issue with STIPPP so I do drive with side lights on.

I have not checked my tracker, am off from work soon will give them a ring.

[Gee Wr1]

Mines usually parked up from Mon morn till Fri night never had any probs.

[chris]

That should explain way mine's been ok.

Which month did you get your car?

[Brian]

Are you having a new battery installed at the same time, as frequent discharged batterys dont tend to last very long. in my experience.
