seems that i cant turn off the engine and listen to the radio for more than about 30 minutes before i get a low-battery warning and the radio shuts off and if the car sets for several days, i see a low-batter warning when i first start the engine.. and when i say 'listen to the radio', it's usually talk-radio at a low volume (not rocking out full blast)

is this normal i do i need to visit my service manager?

may need a new battery.. or the battery voltage module on the negative terminal needs to be reset..

There is more electronics in your car than you can possibly imagine.
When you are listening to radio, alot of other modules stay powered up. Maybe leave car idling if you gonna sit like that listening to radio. Or get a Walkman.......LOL
