Had my type r for about 2 months.

Running perfect. Today I got in it, battery flat, got a neighbour to jump me, perfect again. Did about 10 miles running, parked at work. Just got in it, dead again.

Anyone have any idea?
 
Check is if the battery is getting any charge. Do you have/can you get a voltmeter?

With the engine running the battery should read about 14v.
 
I would say battery not holding charge,12v when engine off or 14v when running.
Possibly alternator failing but usually red battery light comes on first to tell .
