so recently, i hadn't driven my car for a couple weeks
i take it out for a drive to warm her up.

i let the car sit for a couple of days, and i come back to try and start the car, and when i press the start engine button all power just shuts off. all it makes is a clicking sound.
what is this problem? im thinking maybe its the spark plugs?

 

How old is your battery? Do you have an alarm or anything else that may be a drain while it is parked?

 

Sounds like the battery. Dead cell probably.

 

the battery is about a year old. so you guys think its the battery?
i had it jump started the other day, but it took like 30 minutes for it to charge.
it worked after jump startting a few times, then it just died like 4 hours later. should i get a new battery or try recharging the dead one?

 

Battery! I had to replace mine recently as well.

 

Just a side note... it's better to leave your car alone. (instead of warming it up every once in a while)

 

same thing happened 2 mine after a few weex of sitting.

took forever 2 charge, and wouldn't hold a charge.

i run an optima yellow and got a new warrantied one.

perhaps you can do the same? one-year isn't very old.

just dont go with the Odyssey PC-680. My car would up and decide when it wanted to start. I had no say in the matter. I would drive it for hours then go get gas, then it wouldnt start. I would go until the lights started dimming from trying to start it. I' wait a half and hour and it would start right up. I got a yellow top now and it has never happened.

 

is the Optima Yellow top really worth the $150??

 

yeap!!! i have 3 years with mine and no problems
