[QUOTE="oscar, post: 160861, member: 2757"] sounds like you've got parasitic drain (a bad earth) somewhere in your system dom. this happened to me recently, it was my dodgy airbag wiring that done it. turn the ignition, chug chug chug screech screech and then click click non stop as if the battery was dead. check the condition of your battery first, if you have a multimeter then check the voltage of the battery it should be 12.6V fully charged and no less than 11.6V. that aside, bump start it and try not to snap the clutch pedal off lol. when you get it started, take it out for a nice long hours drive and then recheck the voltage of the battery whilst the misses or a mate starts the car and let me know what the voltage drops to as it starts!
