Unless you can pinpoint a drain on the battery, I always just swap any battery that has done this. It's just not worth being stranded for the cost of the battery, and the car will start waaaaay faster with a nice 80AH battery. When I swapped mine a few weeks back I was amazed how much faster it cranked.

Mine was low enough it just would not try. All lights on, then "click", nothing.
