Ve ss Commodore z series 5.7
8out of 10times my car will start no problems. The other 2 flat battery.
I jump start it and off it goes.
There are no warning lights on dash indicating a problem.
All i get is car going into power saving mode.
If i drive 30 minutes get out for 15 then go to start flat battery , sometimes.
When i lock car with remote control (including double locking) i noticed centre cluster light on dash and lights surrounding the stereo dont go off. Only sometimes.
I dont know if its battery or car draining power when not running.
Any ideas

You might have a problem with the driver's door lock actuator if the car isn't 'going to sleep' when you lock it.

How old is your battery mate? Probably due for replacement by the sound of it

Does the stereo turn off when you open the driver's door with the key out ?
