Hello, my car has shut off on me twice. It's not the battery, because the radio and windows work when it is shut down. It first did it after I was driving on the e-way. The car did this sort putting thing and then when I got off the e-way it shut down and it took several tries to get it started again. I was able to drive it for the week. From time to time when I accelerate it would act like it was going to shut down, but it never did. Today I drove the car arround about 3 times and then went to the store and when I came out it wouldn't start. It went vrroom, vrroom, vrroom but woudn't start. I kept trying and then it finally started. I put the car in drive and it shut right back off. I kept trying to turn it on and then it finally started again. I waited and then drove the car home. What do you think that could be? My engine light is now on.

Have the computer scanned for code/s-you have a problem within the engine management system that caused the CEL to turn on-This is your starting point of diagnosis, finding out what's going on.
