    what did you do to your micra today ?

    Not in my experience pal. I have friends, colleagues and acquaintances these days and can count the former on one hand. If ya mates are the kind to get ya in situations like that id drop em before ya end up in a cell or worse. Only my informed opinion of course. Your decision tho

    what did you do to your micra today ?

    Thats what mates are good for pal. Take it from someone who knows. Theirs a big difference between mates and real friends. Real friends dont put you in the kinda situation to get in trouble

    Brake light comes on when keys arent in the ignition?

    Cheers pal. Was worried it might have been the cause of my earlier dead battery. Sorry to change subject but could leaving the stock stereo turned on with the ignition off drain the battery at all? Gotta keep runin to the car to check the radio is off just incase atm lol.

    2003 micra s 1.0 automatic

    Strangely enough there was enough power not to knock out the radio. Just not enough to crank the motor over. I wont be using the interior light again for sure. Hopefully this wont cause to many issues. I only do about 18 miles a day so the battery is never gunna get a decent charge from the...
