Hey there is just that the car was sitting to much every car has about 3 - 7 + miliamp draw per hour then when you crank engine there's about 400 + cranking amp draw its just bad all over .
And an aternator will not charge a battery in 10 mins
You need to drive 1hour + at 100 k to properly give it a good deep charge
If you let your car sitt longer than three consecutive days you should have a battery tender of some sort
and ounce every two months have it charged with a charge with a low charging amp preferably a charger with a pulse device
how old is the battery? anything over 4 years on these cars and your pretty much staring down the barrel !!! you need to do a load test on it by FULLY charging the battery (like overnight) then have someone read a multi-meter connected to the battery while you start it. if the battery voltage falls below 9.6 volts, its failed the test, get a new one!
you still haven't said how old the battery is, and driving it 300k will charge it but wont fully charge it... an alternator is no substitute for a battery charger! you need to FULLY charge the battery and do a load test, or get it done for you.
Batteries are just like us, they deteriorate with age!
