Hey guys,
I have parked my car since December 20th and now the car is dead every time I try to start her up. I was starting the car every two weeks and taking it for a short drive around the block, and it would start up just fine. Then one time, i accidentally "Armed" the car (I have a Clifford alarm) and after two weeks it died and wouldnt start. That wasnt a surprise so I boosted her, drove a little bit and then parked her again making sure not to ARM, but just lock the doors. That was about 10 days ago.
I tried firing up last night and the car dead again. She doesnt start and instead crazy ticking noises happen. The RPM and Speed needles raise a little or go below zero and vibrate and then go back to normal when the ticking stops. I boosted her again and she fired up. The on-board track aps screen is showing 14 volt charge while the car is running.
My question is if anyone else has experienced this and what the best way would be to keep this from happening? Battery charger? Any good brands?
