yeah i'm putting it a new battery sometime tomorrow. I have it but haven't had a chance to change it out.
It's an oem battery so hopefully this will fix the optima problem if that's it...

My car started doing the same thing one day, refuses to idle, stalls, runs great aside from that. I tried resetting the ECU and that seemed to work, then later in the day the car wouldn't start. After replacing the battery it starts and is yet to stall while idle'ing

Has enough juice to hang on while the alternator is spinning, but not enough to hold charge.
Optima batteries are really only useful if you're a die-hard track racer with everything stripped from the interior. If you run accessories, get something with a little reserve. The 15# you saved over stock is not worth it, IMHO.
