Renault Espace battery keeps discharging when parked

Car: Renault Espace
Variant: 2.1 turbo diesel
Model Year: 1994
Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
My car wouldn't start the other morning and I found the battery to be completely flat and as it was quite old thought my best option would be to replace it? This I did but after a few days, the same thing has happended again!! A completely flat battery again - it is discharging overnight. I have not left any lights on nor is there anything I can think of that might be pulling power from the battery while parked up. There are no warining lights on the dash board to suggest the alternator is not charging the battery whilst driving and everything else seems normal - any ideas of where to even start looking?

you need to check that your battery is holding a charge.i think you need to replace your battery.

I see you have replaced battery ,but it's not the first time I've had a dud . Get new battery charged and tested along with alternator output . Then if all ok. and still got fault , check for electrical drain .

go back to who ever you got the battery from and ask them to do a drop test and charging test to and should come back with some thing
