Aza13 0 Report post Posted March 19, 2011 Hey guys, Im having a problem with my '90 e30 325 where if i dont drive the vehicle for a couple of days then the battery always goes flat and i have to jump start the car. This has happened three times now. What are possible reasons for the battery to constantly go flat or be drained? Any help would be great, thanks.

Its a brand new battery so shouldnt be the battery have had new batterys fail before .get yourself a meter and measure the amps if draws when sitting there and then slowly remove one fuse at a time to see which one makes a difference, also the door locking solinoids and door locking control modules fail in these cars . do all the central locks work ??

barracuda83 0 Report post Posted May 1, 2011 hey guys does anyone know why my gear selection panel LED in Park is always on? Even why my car has keys out, locked and sitting for hours. or is it meant to be like that? If so what a waste of battery power. Im just checking that this car has not been singapore "engineered" or something. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You'll get a better response this way Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
