So on the weekend I drove for 30 mins out parked the car at the shops for 10 mins came back and it wouldnt start.
Called the Road side assistance and they came and said it seems to be battery issue and needs a battery replacement. They gave me a jump start. I drove home parked it for couple of days. Yesterday tried to start the car no issues it started all fine. Same thing happened today it started without any issues.

It has happened few times where it cranks for few secs before it starts or you have to wait for 15-20 mins before you give it another go.

Seems bit weird to be a battery issue. No warning/error messages. What are your thoughts.
Years ago I used to work for NRMA batteries, It can most certainly be the battery playing up, they can get a bad joint between the plates and sometimes it will work perfectly other time will not crank the engine
