Same here. My wife's VW was cranking over slowly on the coldest days this past winter after setting overnight. Its probably a combination of it being 5yrs old and her short in town trips never fully topping off the battery.

Its being replaced by Nov but in order to safely make it through last winter I just tossed a 1.5amp auto-float charger every few days. It cured the slow cranking first thing in the morning.
