Got their replies.
1st Case
Owner of the Kia Spectra don't really recall the details of the incident as no service documents were kept. Besides it's been a really long time already.
However as a passenger of that vehicle, I can faintly recall that before the car loss all power supply, the aircon and radio went off first, after a minute or so, power to the instrument panel also went off ! Then the vehicle just died like that very close to the repair shop.
2nd Case
Owner of Nissan X-Trail, who gave me the dead Yokohama battery said his X-Trail just died while he was on his was to a meeting. After replacing with a new battery by the road side, the X-Trial was behaving normal again.
Nothing else was changed and the Service Center affirms that the X-Trail alternator is ok.
Strange isn't it ? All previous posts that I've read suggest that vehicles can operate normally by removing the battery after it has been started. Under these circumstance especially the 2nd case shows otherwise ! Hmmm
yeah, it is weird, i thought even the battery died, you can still drive your car normally, is just that you wont be able to start it again the nxt time round.1st Case

maybe there's more to it that what it seems, maybe one of it's electronics is in the verge of its life and a new battery that was replace gave it a temporary boost... Im just speculating hehehe
