I am asking for my Dad as his 2011 Golf TDI would not start after sitting in the carport for two days. First things that were checked was:
1. Anything being left on - NO.
2. Voltage in the battery - approx 6 volts.
3. After charging the battery, checked to see if the Alt was charging - Yes, 13 volts at idle.
He drove the car to the Dealer and had them check for any and all problems but was told that there was no problems found. They have had the car for about 6mo now and we do not think that the battery should go dead this soon. Has anyone else experienced this and if so, what did you find the cause to be? Dumbfounded.
