Default Battery goes Dead

If my ES 350 is not driven for 2 days, the battery will be dead.

If I drive it every day, there is no problem.

Thinking it was a bad battery, I replaced it with a new one.

Anybody have the same problem or have any suggestions ??

Got my ES350 9/06 and, with this the 4th winter coming up, I'm thinking to replace the battery now before it dies when it is freezing cold out. I have left our car for 1-1/2 weeks and sometime less without starting / driving and it has started up every time.

Replacing the battery was a good idea but you have something else going on if the battery continues to go down that fast. Your dealer can probably find the problem pretty quickly and most likely the relpair will be covered by your warranty.

I agree that this problem should be checked out by the dealer. It sounds like someting other than a bad battery.

I got my car in 4/06 and it regularly sits for a week or more with no starting problems from the original battery.
