Hi,

My perdana v6, 1year+ old 5.1k km mileage battery has a a problem is it? If the car is not started for two days full, on the third day cannot start the car, can try but battery weak. Need to jump start car with another battery. I don't know what is going on. The car is under utilised. Used to go to work +4km away. Sometimes outstation leaving car, but then this car is weird. Got old honda accord, 2 weeks of no activity can still can start up like normally.
Is this a perdana defect or is there something wrong with this car?

might be something wrong with your car....check the alternator...might not be charging.
how often u check the battery water level? or maintanance free? or some of your
electronic gadget might be draining your battery.

yar bro... a good charge is better than everyday poor charge, because you need to really activate the cells in the batt in order to work it up....

if this problem is consistent after you change a batt...... then look up for 2 things
1. faulty alternator
2. circuit leakage somewhere......

Less than 4km one way. Takes less than 15 mins to reach workplace.

government car, so government maintain the car. The car has been like this since obtaining it from the government.

1 year + .... 51K km .....
might be voltage leak ....
better send to proton workshop to check....
maybe tehy have a solution
or maybe your battery need to be change...
alternator also can be the problem but 1 year + car should be in good charging condition.
