    Could a battery with low cca but normal voltage cause error codes? My 2015 Corolla sport suddenly is getting very bad gas mileage and I wonder if it could be battery related….

    My car is starting slower than last year. I'll get it check in May. My father just had his replaced. He leaves everything on. I told him that will suck power from your battery during startup. He learned his lesson to turn everything off before shutting off

    One more symptoms with newer cars is that electrical issues start occurring and intermittently (key fob not working at time, dashboard and radio turning off briefly, radar sensor system shutting off briefly, car even shutting off because battery is not sending signal to ignition).

      With a push start, it is achieved by engaging the manual transmission (with key in "run" position), the starter isn't involved.

    My car wouldn't start for a while but then I got a jump and it started. Then the next day it wouldn't start. So I unplugged the battery clamps for about a week. Then I connected the clamps back on and my car almost started but couldn't turn over. So my question is, would that be a bad battery or a bad alternator? Thanks!
