Thanks for all the replies. I changed garages about 5 months ago. As i didn't feel confident eith my old one. When the old garage changed the battery the mechanic just took the old one out and put the new one in. No coding took place! The new battery make is banner. It's a stop start battery. Cost £170 from one of my local motor factors. I'm starting to It's a battery issue after all of these comments. Thanks again.

It's concerning the fact that it's my second battery in three years and this second one is only a year old. I also don't use the stop start i deactivate as soon as i start work in the morning. There has to be more of an issue that's causing this. Also i have had no warning lights. 🤔

Thanks carlston. The battery voltage is around the 12 mark before i disconnect the wire from the battery terminal once reconnected it goes upto 14.odd. I have a buture booster which is very good. And fires my car up everytime.

To be honest the mechanic has a really good reputation. The car is 3 years old. Replaced the original battery at 2 years old. Now a year later the second battery is doing the same. And like i said earlier once I've jump started the car and disconnected the wire from the battery terminal and then connect it again it's fine. Starts everytime. Till the next day or 3 days later. Seems the alternator isn't being told to do it's job till I've done this. Thanks

Thanks for the info. My mechanic thinks it could possibly be something to do with the ecu? Which is concerning. It's a taxi and i won't lie I've jad nothing but trouble with this model. £4000 spend in the last 4 months on repairs.

Evening, I'm new. I have a skoda octavia 2018 1.6 tdi auto estate. The problem, my battery keeps going dead. Been to the mechanics and theres no problem with the alternator or battery. I have replaced the wire from the battery to the alternator but the issue is happening. Once i jump start the car i disconnect the wire from the battery to the alternator and reconnect it and the car is fine for the rest of the day. Thanks in advance for reading.
