My car keepds dying ?

Question

ok, i just got a new battery yesterday,

but my car keeps dying in the middle of the the street..

like whenever i push the brake to stop at a stop sign or stop light, most of the time it will die.. what do u think is wrong with my car?

and about how much do u think it would be to get it fixed?

its a 2004 Dodge Stratus R/T..

the Check engine light and Service engine soon light only come one when it dies..

basically my car cant just sit there and idle

Answer 1

After battery is replaced the computer needs to relearn idle. May need to take to shop. Just letting it idle for a while should have taken care of it. Did a shop replace the battery? If so they should have known this.

Answer 2

get the altenator checked also it might not be charging properly

Answer 3

Try cleaning the throttle body.

Answer 4

You should be able to take it to a auto parts store and they will USUALLY check the codes and can tell you why the check engine light comes on. If there is a code, it will store it in memory, so they will still be able to tell you why the light is (was) on.

When was the last time your fuel filter was replaced?
