Get it checked with all your lights, heather, etc ON to see what voltege it's producing, under full load. If you have a voltmeter it's easy enough to do it yourself

Sounds like you need to keep it in a garage

Something about the GTS only 2 secs faster at Ring and that a well set up CSL on AP's would be quicker, etc.

Fair enough but I'd still get it checked as something isn't right Steve
CSL are too modern to be loosing charge overnight like my old MK2 Golf GTi (ever time the temperatures drop below 0 deg C ) especially since you use your CSL ever day

I have a long journey at the beginning and end of the week and shorter journeys inbetween, I'm thinking that and the cold weather may have done it. Plus a month or so ago I left the lights on whilst test driving a car. Battery flat when I went to leave doh!

Lots of short journeys won't do it any favours Steve. Take the longer route home in the evenings.
