happens when you slow down to a near stop. so coming to stop sign/light, turning into someplace, traffic on the highway slows way down in front of you, etc.
when i duplicated the issue with the shop foreman, we were slowly approaching a string of cars at the light when it died.

Completely agree with Mike. This year in Florida, the winter was very cold (not if you lived in Ithaca), but now it happens at least once a day with me, even in normal modes. It is related to temperature and humidity. South BMW in Miami was not able to diagnose anything back in December. Now I will take it to the 7k tuneup and see what they say. When I first took the car, the moron (advisor) asked me to just tow the car, even though I could start it normally. Who would do that?
