Parked for a Few Days = Dead Battery – Is This Normal?

I didn’t use my Karvaan for just 5 days, and the battery was completely dead when I tried to start it. I expected it to hold charge at least 10–15 days.
Is it normal for Changan Karvaan to lose battery this fast, o r is there a hidden power draw somewhere?

No, a healthy battery should hold charge for at least 10–15 days.

Root Cause:

Parasitic current draw from devices even digital meters o r stereo systems

Weak battery with poor storage capacity

Fix:

Disconnect battery if parking for a long time or use battery kill switch

Use a trickle charger if available

Get the battery checked for self-discharge issues
