After a couple of weeks dormant my 300tdi struggled to start as if the battery was flat, it has an Optima red top which was purchased in feb 05 so is well over 6 years old, I know the battery charges ok because its fine when used every few days.
Is 6.5 years a good innings for one of these battery's ? or could it be something else.
Also I did notice it was not quite so keen as usual last winter on the really cold days and that was using it daily, so am wondering if the battery it on the way out.
cheers
