Gruen Planet, good show.

@cam hunting idle. Dead or dieing AFM??

Dirty IACV, Common as anything on RS's.

Pull it off and give it a clean with contact or carby cleaner.

If it's a failing one, With the car at cold start, Disconnect it and watch for the idle to change. If that's fine, I suspect it's a failing AFM...Clean it too :)

Sister's car battery doesn't charge when parked in a certain spot in our driveway.

 

Obvious GT answer is obvious.

 

Park somewhere different.

 

What would cause a battery not to charge when parked on an every so slight decline?

Wind has just picked up significantly in the last 2 mins.. It literally was still next thing gust of air through my bedroom window and then it has not stopped.... 29 on my balcony at the moment... I have a feeling the co southerly has finally arrived :) :)
What do you mean charge whole parked? Are you leaving the car running in the driveway to charge the battery?

Tested that with a multimeter?

Is this when the cars running or on a battery charger?

New battery in Feb this year after a bunch of electrical problems.

 

Worked fine until about 2 weeks ago. Battery was completely dead. Jumped it with my car and took it for a drive around the block.

 

Was fine for another 2 days and we have to do it again. Continuous cycle like that. Only ever dies when it's parked on the slight slope.

 

I put a multimeter on it and it was just dropping voltage.

Shouldn't the battery still be under warranty?

Still is a possibility that the battery is gone. A weird problem that's for sure.

It's what the battery voltage is while the car is running.

Should be around 13.5 to 14.7. Something like that anywAy

Pretty sure it was up around 12.6 when on.

 

But there's something happening when it's on the slope to make it not charge properly!

Weird about the slope!

The charging system dosnt seem too healthy with that voltage reading.
