whats up guys having issues w/my 8 still. it is still stalling. If any of you have an OEM battery laying around that I can borrow or even take off your hands dirt cheap let me know if you can help a brotha out. I need to swap out my optima red top before going back to Wayne so Kevin can look at it again. Its his suggestion so Mazda dont try to jerk me on warrenty work. But like I expressed these issues have started a few weeks ago and it was way before I got the optima red top battery in there.

I hope everyones 4th of July weekend was better than mine cause this is fustrating.

Well it happened again this past Friday (7/4) Was driving out to Long Island to see my girl. This time there was no traffic. Was doing 80/90 the whole way no problems. Came off the exit (exit 57 LIE) and as I was approaching a red light it stalled. Didnt think nothing of it because I thought maybe i wasnt gassing it enough.

Well today (7/6)on my way from NJ on route 3 it stalled as I started to brake to slow down due to a car that decided to cut me off like an *******. Next thing I know the lights came on and it shut off. Threw the hazard lights on and came to a full stop on route 3. Started it up again and drove it not so hard.

3 blocks away from home I decided to try again to see if it would happen again and it did. This time i popped it into 4th gear and started up again very sluggish.

I'm going to do what you suggested and put an OEM battery back in. But Im gonna bring it back to wayne. Im thinking it has to be a more deep rooted electrical issue. maybe ECU? I dunno

All i know is that it is fustrating to have the 8 after only owning it for 6 months and having these kind of issues.

BTW i finally installed my gauges today.
