Yeh when the car is on and im driving it doesnt die. Only when its off and i turn it on. Thing is its got a new battery 5 months ago. . . Well ive jumped it and going to leave the car on for 15mins and turn it off and turn it back on to see if its going to run. If not something is up Alright the car was on in my driveway. . and now it just turned off itself. =/ Get your batt tested even new batts can have problems and be defective too and if the batt tests good its your alt its probably faulty and not charging your batt at all. -------------------- "To Protect And To Serve The Wealthy" -POLICE
