#5 of 6 Dead Battery by 13eddie Oct 29, 2009 (3:02 pm)
I have a 2009 GV, with less than 9000 miles which 1500 of them are towed mileage towed behind my home home. I have have towed to two different dealer to find out why my battery is dead after arrive at next stop. Have to get a jump start just to get out of tow mode, fallow and the instruction in the book but doesn't seem to make any difference. Also the smell of burnt wiring or rubber coming near the callick convertor. Any suggestion Replies to this message: bm000092 (Oct 29, 2009 7:37 pm)

Replying to: 13eddie (Oct 29, 2009 3:02 pm) We would need more details. That burn smell, is it after you drove it, after you towed it ? GVs have an anti-rust coating that smell like burnt oil for a few 1000k Kms. That dead battery, is it happenning only after you towed it ? does it happen also when resting a couple of days without moving ?
