Okay so last week I noticed that when slowing down coming off a main road onto a slip road my car started to stall, it'd cut out without juddering or anything and the battery light would come on along with a couple of other lights, so as I was moving I just popped it into second and pulled my clutch up to bump start it, it happened a couple of other times after this until this weekend just gone I had my clutch and gearbox replaced, when I got the car back Monday night it did this almost every time I braked, after a quick search on these forums I found that it may be the oil breather pipe, upon inspection I found that this wasn't actually connected, I connected it yesterday and it seemed to solve the problem (it did happen 1 or 2 times last night but nowhere near as many times as it did when that pipe was off)
Anyway, also every time I leave my car for a couple hours or so the battery will completely drain and my car won't start I either have to get jump started or bump start it but if I remove my positive battery terminal when I leave my car and then reconnect it when I come back to my car it'll start every time, I have no idea if this is related to the problem above but it's getting really annoying and after having the clutch/gearbox done on the weekend I'm reluctant to spend a fortune having a garage look at it.
P.S. I don't know if this will make a difference but a few months ago I found that the negative battery lead had broke where it joins to the chassis so my mate soldered it to a bit of copper pipe and put some gaffer tape round it which solved that issue (car wouldn't start before he did that)
Any help would be greatly appreciated this car is really getting me stressed I've only had it for 5 months!
