Having a problem with my Ph2 16v cab,

Have a newish battery, went out to start my car the other day after a couple of days of it being sitting idle, and nothing, no ignition lights or anything. Used my people carrier to give it a jump, after a few minutes it started. Drove round for a bit, turned it off and it started fine.

Got home left it overnight went to start and again nothing, Took out battery and charged it up. replaced it and car started fine. Checked that there were nothing left on to drain the battery, All seemed well. When I locked the car up I heard a wuring noise from under the bonnet. Cannot locate where it is from. I think this is draining the battery. But have no idea where to start looking

Anyone else had this problem or any ideas? Sad

thats the aux water pump, it goes off after 8 mins though. If the relays dodgy then it will run continuosly.

Not that I did a tech article or anything on this ohh no not me why woudl I do that?

front passenger side under the bonnet thats the source of the buzzing.

If thats not the problem the batter might just be duff so get it replaced under warrenty.
