However, just to be sure, I recommend that you first attach a smart charger to your battery and leave it connected for at least 24 hours, preferably longer. Diesel engines are hard on batteries.

Update: i have been driving the car multiple times today and if I leave it parked for a few hours it will start but very weakly, you can hear the engine struggling to start as if theres no power but once it starts it drives fine as it should
