Obligatory statement about how I searched. Seriously though, nothing was really close. Of course I'll be digging while I get some feedback here.
04' MT. Haven't had any trouble since I got it besides an asymptomatic P0301 popping up randomly, but would then go away. Haven't seen it in a couple weeks now. Been starting up just fine. Maybe it was just me being obsessive, but perhaps it was taking an extra second to start. Nothing I thought to worry about.
Parked the car at 6 or so last night and didn't touch it. Didn't leave the lights on or anything at all. Went to start it at 12 and it was completely dead. As in absolutely nothing came on. Thought maybe I left something stupid like the overheads on (even though I don't think that'd be enough to completely kill it), so I hooked up my jumper pack and it started up right away. Left it idle for 15 minutes, turned it off, and took my dad's mustang out for a few hours. Came back and the RX8 started up fine so I drove to school, where it then sat for 2 1/2 hours. Got out of class and it started up fine. Drove the 40 minutes home and stopped at the state store to pick up some booze. I was in and out in 10 minutes. Came out and it was completely dead again. No lights, nothing. Buddy showed up and we tried to jump it to no avail. Had it for 10 minutes or so and I got 3 clicks, then dead. Tried that process two more times and only got 1 click. Waited another 10, he revved while I tried to start and I got nothing out of it. No noises at all. The only power it had was to show the little red seat belt light when I reached in to grab my stuff and mooch a ride.
So, obviously a dead *** battery, but why the hell would it die like that? With the jeep I could jump it and wouldn't have to worry about it. Starting a couple times and dying after 10 minutes makes no sense.
