Cl keep cuting off.

Let's say I drove the car for almost 3+ hrs and I turn it off. When restart it back up the car acts funny... like its about to shut off on me the engine shakes and then when I press the gas hard it gets normal... the other night I was driving home doing about 60 on the express way the car shut off on me and the green key sign came on the dash broad. I pulled over and started it back up... happen about 3-4 time


What could it be?

Check your timing belt....i had that happen to me with my old car...timing belt needed to be replaced....check it soon cuz you dont want to pay for bent valves...if it snaps....that or your alternator/starter.....

check by starting your car and then just get out and see if it stays on...if it does...then your battery might be messed up or something else weird....

if not then your alternator/starter is bad and needs to be replaced...

The water pump and the timing belt was replace by the DEALER... could it be an idle sensor? and the shaking never happens when the car is cold

How long was it replaced? Check your plugs and air filter too.

Never changed the air filter? How long have you had the car? Take a look at it. I would think that the dealership would have pointed it out to you though. If it looks clean, take the car back to the dealer and have them check it.
