Something drawing power from the battery, dead cell in the battery, or a weak alternator. Test the voltage at the battery with the engine running. It should read from 13.5-16 volts. Any less and the alternator is bad. If the battery is over 3 years old it is more than likely defective.

Why does your battery keep going flat in your corsa?

There are two common reasons for this. The first is that your generator(alternator) is not charging properly. The second is that your battery is going bad and not holding charge. If it is driving okay once it is jump started then your generator is probabably good and the battery needs to be replaced. I am betting the battery is going bad bc of a bad cell in it. Replace it and I bet it will be fine. A battery can fail with no warning whatsoever. It is more common that one might think. Hope this helps. Good luck.
