Default Please help - 90CS electrical problem
1994 Audi 90CS, new battery will not hold charge. After jump starting runs fine during the day but next morning the battery is completely drained.

The dealerships checked the draw with the engine off and it's normal. They can't find what's causing this.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Alex

either a faulty battery or something is still on when the car is off. maybe an overhead light?

Check your trunk light switch, maybe put a shim in there. Get a friend with a DMM.

Best place to start is by checking the voltage with car on and off!!!
