I'm having problems with my battery or alternator. I have to charge my car after everyday because it looses a charge during the day, while being driven. After starting the car I have11 volts when it should be 13.82.

charge your battery and have it load tested ,if it's ok then have your alternator tested as well most auto parts stores can do this. If you have a volt meter, charge your battery and it should read at least 12.4 volts with nothing on.
