My wife has a 2004 NB w/ 53,000 mi. Last month a she was driving around town the car started to die every time she had
to stop. The car would start agian and as long as she was going 30 mph or more car ran fine..if she had to stop or slow
down below 30 ..the engine would sputter and die again.
The car has never done anything like this before..it just suddenly happened. She finally got home it home and an hour later I was able to check it out. The car started right away and as I went for a test drive found no problem. I thoght the problem could be a bad battery or alternator. I had the battery checked and it was bad...so I installed a new one and have not had any episodes until today. It is doing the same thing runs fine as long as going faster than 30 mph any slower car dies....Any thoughts ?
