Hi, I am having a problem with my Clio Sport 197. The battery seems to be running down even though the alternator is working (as i have checked with garage). I have used the car normally and havent been doing small runs all the time to run the battery down. Since this has started happening a beep goes twice when I lock the car with the button on the door and once when i open the doow with the keyless entry. Please can anyone give me a hand; i have had no luck from mechanics and garages. Thanks.

i think the problem u are having is that you are only taking your car out for short runs and not actually giving the battery enough time to be charged by the alternator, if not try changing the battery you may have one with a fault
are u running any sort of aftermarket electrical equipment at all?
