Hi, I have had my car jump started twice this week. It sat warming up for 30mins the first after being jump started and then just died and the second time it was able to be taken for a bit of a drive before dying. Appears to be taking the charge but not holding it? The battery is only about 1.5yrs old, and I have never had this sort of issue after it has been jump started unless the battery was old. Do you think there may be a fault with the battery?

Hi there,
This does sound like the battery may have an internal fault, I recommend taking it back to where you purchased it for testing.
