@admin Thank you for your reply. I failed to mention that the golf car sat in the garage unused for a long time. Would that contribute to the apparent deterioration?

There is a good chance those are the original batteries. Check with the battery manufacturer and find out where the date code is printed on the batteries. That will help you determine how old they are and if they need replacing.

I recently purchased a used (like brand new) club car w/ a 36volt battery system. It seems to run slower than others in my park and requires charging more often (like every time I use it). is that a sure indicator that I need to replace the batteries? The fluid levels are all fine.

48 volt is really a scam to try to make more money off of batteries and upgrades. There is no difference in power between the 36 and 48 volt golf carts!
