Dear all,

I'm owner of a my 2003 Coupe GT. I've bought the car last year in the Netherlands and brought it to the service first. Now it's in garage since October due to some electronic issues, for change of brake discs and pads and I've also send the sticky interior parts to the United states for refurbishment.

The car is original, but has 433 horsepower (Dutch car magazine called it a "friday car").

I will try to get it back in a very good condition, the previous owner seemed to had a very bad garage, even if I'm not sure if mine is really better. Theyve replaced already two times the alternator, checked the instruments, replaced the airbag control and battery and still didn't figured out, why the battery is draining out.

I hope the car will be ready for spring in the end of month...

Best regards

Reinhard

Reinhard, welcome to the fold. The battery drain can usually be attributed to the Tracker which has its own battery, when this runs out it drains your main battery. Have the tracker taken out, and it’ll be fine I reckon.
