@@Data4664 Generally a two year old battery would still be under warranty. If you purchased it then return it for a replacement. Alternatively if it's not holding a charge when connected then something in the car is draining it. We had a similar problem when an aftermarket phone kit was fitted. Also the alarm / immobiliser can cause a small drain over time.
