Hi - First timer here - so be gentle!
I have got a 06 Stilo 1.6 Active Multi Wagon. It has been off the road for the past 5 months as I have not needed it and I am now looking to sell it (29K miles if anyone is interested!). However the battery is dead!
I managed to get it started again with jump leads onto another car. Took about 15 minutes before it would start. I then left it connected for a further 15 minutes and then after running for another 15 minutes I took it for a 20 mile drive. So from starting it up it was running for about 50 minutes and charging for just over an hour.
When I parked up again and stopped the engine, I immediately tried to start it up again and absolutely nothing happened.
The car started first time everytime up to me not using it. Any ideas as to what the problem is?
As I said before, I am hoping to sell this so don't want to spend a lot of money on garage fees etc!
Any help appreciated
Thanks
Max
