Hi

My first post...

I have the 1.8 Club SE model 2001 year (purchased 4 weeks ago). Recently the car will not start without jump starting it. It just clicks and headlights flash when turning key. Once jump started the car runs fine. However the same issue will rise the following day and the car will not start again.

I've checked the battery and the volts are between 13-15 which seem correct. Also the battery is only a couple of years old. I've checked all interior lights are going off (boot, glove box and dome).

Only other issue with the car is the drivers door central locking doesn't open with the key fob. It does lock with the fob. Wondering if there could and link here to the battery drain. Any ideas??
