[QUOTE="audiobaun, post: 8733950, member: 634282"] Batteries do get cold sitting in cold weather also and take time to charge back up to the norm while the cells warm up. The cells get cold and loose voltage as well while sitting and charging when vehicle is on and most of the time the starter takes a little time to create that friction needed from the cold and possibly a coat of thin frozen layer from moisture to melt. Thats why most people in the colder climates generally place a trickle charger on theyre batteries, to keep them charged up. It may be possible that your alternator may need to be tested. Just my experiences living up in the DC area and Boston areas and northern States with Systems [/QUOTE]
