I use my car once a week this time of year. It gets a trip to work and back so 12 miles each way.
The last few weeks the engine turns over a little slower at that first start but is fine in the evening and any subsequent days I use it.
Today it was really sluggish (last used sat) but it did start the car. But then the alarm goes off and I can't switch it off. It runs for about 10 secs although I've stopped the engine, got out and generally pressed everything I can to shut it up.
It did this 3 times before I gave up. I just hope it isn't sat at home merrily alarming the neighbourhood.
So clearly it doesn't like being left but is a week about right? Its not much.
I'm hoping a session on the accumate will sot it out but it will be a pain to have to have it connect all the time the car is stationary.
Anyone else had this issue with the alarm? Had it not been for that Could have used it and charged he battery the normal way. I suppose the alarm may have stopped but you'd feel a bit of an idiot driving along in a Porsche with the alarm going!
