some of these have a charge relay in the drivers side kick panel,which can cause problems, there was also an issue with the drivers side bonnet hinge rubbing the harness for a set of fuses you could check these, is the alternator actually chargeing and what are the figures, it may not be an alternator issue or battery issue it maybe some thing draining the battery over a period of time first check is how much the alternator is chargeing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
