Lewis- I have been driving my A8 more, and my V8 less, and It is not uncommon
for me to leave the V8 outside for weeks at a time. I never have a starting
problem. There are ways to check for abnormal current drains which are not
difficult. If you have had ANY electronics installed beyond what came from the
factory, start there. If you need help on trouble shooting let me know. BTW, a
trickle charger won't hurt if the battery has water. HTH
