Battery drain?

[Fred Munro]

Scott;

I had a battery drain problem with my '94 UrS4 with it drawing 280 mA. I
traced the problem to a bad window auto-close relay. Once fixed, the car
drew 10 mA with a 20 mA spike every 5 seconds for the alarm system. 450 mA
is way too much for a static current draw.

On my 2001 S4 I'm measuring 450mA current drain on the battery with the car
off, all doors closed, lights off, etc.



Too much? Just right? Seems a bit much. My battery is draining and before I
replace it inquiring minds want to know (alternator appears OK with 13.8V on
the battery with the engine on).



Thanks,



Scott
