i was wondering if anything would happen to a 2010 altima coupe with 11000 miles on it... left parked under the shade for 4 months.... would it turn on and run normally after such a long time... or would i have to change the battery... any ideas??????

I don't think four months is long enough for it to die out, but if you want to be safe about it since our stock batteries are pretty :eek: then I would just disconnect the battery while you are gone and you should be good.

you're battery is gonna be dead. leave it on a trickle charger or charge it before you plan on driving it again.

Make sure you have somebody drive it at least once a week, or have the car on jackstands because your tires will have flat spots and will make your life a living hell when you're driving.
