Hi all, and thank you all for your responses. The thing stalled again yesterday, and this time it had a different set of symptoms. Perhaps this will shed light on the culprit.

First off, Whunter, thanks for your reply. I don't think the battery is to blame, it is about 6 months old. However, I have a charger that tests for sulfation so I will hook it up and see what it says.

It stalled on me this time during a straight ahead stop at a traffic light. When it stalled this time, the instrument cluster lights were totally different than last time. Last time it was the Battery, brake, and ABS lights that came on. This time, it was the battery, brake, brake pad, coolant, oil level, and ABS lights that came on.

Later that night, it almost stalled as I came to a stoplight but didn't. When that happened, the Check Engine light flickered for a millisecond and then went out.

Does this help pinpoint a culprit at all?


Thanks so much for your help!
