I recently changed my battery because it was broken, but with my new one ive had in for around a month and recently evrytime i leave my car for a few hours i cannot get my car to start without jump starting it. When i try to start it i can get it to turn over for about 30 seconds before my battery runs out of charge!

I can then put the jump leads on it for about 30 secs of charging and it will start first time! could something be discharging the battery? or a dodgy earth? Help please!

u sure u're amp or HU or anythin if u have one is connected to the ignition live and not permantent live.
Cos if it's on permanent live everytime u turn u're car off the amp will stay on.

Or have u left any leds or lights on anywhere in u're car? i know it wont drain down the battery loads but may over a few hours??

Thats all i can think of mate sorry
