hello

I have some problems with battery. I bought it in January and I wasnt able to start my car yesterday. Battery was dead. I recharged it and measured standby consumption today. Around 0.062-0.064A.
Is this ok for 1.4 16v engine or is it to high?
 
Make sure you wait some time after you connect the tool so the car go to "sleep" mode.

You are looking for 0.03A with everything off - keys out - lcd off - windows not working - 3rd party alarms off.
 
I waited for 1hour.
I have also removed fuses for every aftermarket electronic (ICE, BT, LPG) and consumption did not change.
 
Check with another multimeter just to be sure.
