Fellow PP'ers,
My 2003 Grande has now chewed through yet another battery, which makes an average of one every 2 years.
Vehicle is stock standard electrically and whilst not driven daily, is driven regularly on highway runs of 200km or more at least twice monthly.
The last two batteries have been standard RACQ replacements and I've even taken on the advice of the last techie to remove the ignition key when parked at home, although I can't see what difference this would make. Makes me mad as my second vehicle which gets similar usage is a 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe which is still on it's original battery!
Any and all suggestions on what the problem may be, and / or recommendations for a reliable battery replacement would be very much appreciated.
Cheers,
Drew
