Need Bat. Advice Quick...
when i drive my car vlmeter reads right around 14... so the alternator appears to be giving off the right amount of juice
when i drive teh car and shut it off and re sart it in 3 hours of less it is fine
when i drive the car and restart it in 3 to 6 hours its sketchy
when i leave teh car more than 6 hours it almost always won't start
this just started happenign wiht the cold weather
if i leave my lights on with car off it dies MUCH faster than normal
am i right in asuming its the batery???? i would GREATLY appreciate any help.. THANKS (btw bat. is as old as car 4-5 years old)

Honestly, just pick up a new battery. Also, have you been having yours serviced? There are ones that need service and some that don't, so that could be the problem as well.
