Good Morning/Evening/Night Audi Owners! I've owned my Audi S3 for around a year now and have had this issue nagging at my side for around the whole time and are still unable to solve it. I've noticed one other thread with a similar issue, however with no solution there either, just wondering whether there are any other people with similar issues. When charged, my 2009 Audi S3 8P starts every time, however, after a single day or two of non-use the car either struggles to start or doesn't start at all. That's the issue. Now for the list of things I've tried: Taken the car to an auto-electrician to examine the fuse box, and investigate any possible power drains - unfortunately found nothing. We've replaced the battery 3 times, different brands each time, with the same issue. Replaced the alternator entirely and then fully charged the battery before running it. Lasted around 2 weeks, before I wasn't able to drive it for a few days and it's not dead again. Checked to ensure there are no lights on inside or out of the car when I leave it overnight. Just wondering whether anyone has had any experience with the above issue and whether you were able to get any solutions? I love the car so much but I'm getting a little tired of worrying after leaving it for a day of non-starting, whether or not it's going to start or not. Thank you, Jasper
