We have just brought my parents new Kia Carnival back from Spain. It had been sitting unused for 3 months (but is still only 6 months onld) and the battery was dead and not holding charge even when jumped then driven for 2 hours. The Kia garage agreed to change the battery and it got us back from spain via france and tunnel (all 2500 kms) with no apparant problem.
Now we have it back in UK it originally started after 3 days or so no problems. We left it for a further 4 days (in the freezing cold) last week and on sat it wouldn't start again - had to jump it again. It was then driven approx 80 miles and started ok that day. Now two days later, today it will not start again !
Any clues as to what the problem might be other than just an iffy battery. Could it be wiring/electrical issues?
