When a car is new, there is no problem to start the engine if the car was not run for a week. After the car runs about 40,000 miles, the engine could not be started if the car was parked for a week until it was jumped up. I was unable to recharge the batter before jump up. The dealer tested the battery and said it was good. I told the dealer the battery was good because it had already been jumped up at home and it was recharged by driving to your location. So, you saw the battery was good. Then the dealer replaced the battery with a new one under the warranty.
After a half year, I got the same problem. I am unable to start the engine if the car was not run for a week unless it was jumped up. Of course, the engine can be started if I keep driving the car such as every 3 days instead of one week. So, I have questions.
Why can a new car engine be run even if the vehicle was not run for a week? Why the battery was easy to be dead completely when the car becomes old even the battery is new? The battery should have no problems because it has been replaced for only a half year. The problem is if the car was not run for a week, then I am unable to start the engine unless jump it up. Please note there was no such a problem when the vehicle was new. I usually dive my car once a week. Is it normal for such a problem when the car becomes old or there is something wrong?
