I have the very same problem...
At cold start, it fires up very quick, just a turn of the key, but after some driving, it starts to turn over very slow.. and sometimes need more than a few try's before getting started.
Last week, I drove it for like 1/2 hour in a very warm day (35°C), I stop it for like 20 minutes and when I tried to start it up again... slow turns.. until the battery get dead.
I have to use a spare battery and cables and it finally fire up... then I drove it home (5 minutes, not long enough to charge a dead battery), and let it rest. After the weekend, I come back with a fresh battery and cables. I was very surprised to see my car firing up at the first turn of the key (before jump-starting it), just like it does any regular day.
Only conclusion, there is another problem, not just the battery charge.
Had any one suffered/solved this problem before???
Thanks!
