Last time my battery have this problem, i went to proton. They have a device to check whats wrong with your car..

Check the wire connecting the alternator to your battery.
Usually it's the alternator that's not charging your battery that causes your battery life to be shorten because no charge back.
But since you mentioned you changed alternator, go back to the shop that changed your alternator and ask them to re-check. Also on the wirings.
Could be some wiring problem that is draining your battery, for instance.....car audio, amplifier etc...

Last time i send to proton they only said my altenator is ok. They just advice me to change to new battery. I think maybe because wiring.
Hmm.... how to d.i.y wiring? Hope someone can guide me. Thanks.

it could be your wiring, maybe it leaking somewhere.i experoience this b4, if 2 day never start the car, the bat will kong and even im driving the voltage reading always lower than 13, it become worst when stop at trafic light, the voltage may drop to 10.
ask my foreman to detect the wiring problem took ages and it endup after i install pivot voltage stabilizer.

Wiring problem is the hardest to detect.
Wish you good luck.
But anything you installed prior to the battery problem?

test with voltmeter/multimeter to see if voltage drop below 12v when not running.
if voltage drop below 11v something draining ur battery.

if engine running should be at least 13v (alternator working/charging)

if u dun use ur car alot try using Varta batt.....they hold charge better

I had the performance grounding wire attached to car body and my battery. Is that may cause this problem? arghhhhh...

 

[b00n]

Check that wire to see whether it touches any live wire. That might be the cause.
But if it's grounded properly, there shouldn't be any problem.
