I have a 2007 Ford Focus. Used on a daily basis it is fine. But if I leave it stood for 4 days or so the battery is dead. It tries to turnover once and then its done. If I jump start it, its fine again so long as I use it daily or don't leave it more than a day or two.
I had Halfords do a free battery test and they said it looked fine but was just low on charge possibly from short trips. This was a while ago and I haven't bothered to do anything since I use it daily most of the time. But it just died on me again after coming back from holiday. Does it sounds like a simple dead battery not taking charge? A friend has suggested it might be alternator related.
