At about 24months in now, and again car will sometimes struggle to turn over. Sometimes it starts, but certainly isn't cranking as quickly as expected. Been through the charging system and earth/grounds. Everything else checks out but the batteries just don't hold up.
exactly my issue mate. Even daily driven, cold weather it will need one crank and then fires up on the second. With new batteries it doesnt do this.
Tried 600+cca etc no change. I reckon something to do with ICC, i'm getting it replaced with an aerpro setup soon(ish).
