So my car (s400 95, 99000 miles) was acting strange today. While driving over the speed bump around 15-20km and the traction light came on and then my car stalled.

After putting it back to natural i got the car going again. This is the first time my car ever stalled.

It was driving normal back to work. After work, driving home i put my foot down on the accerator all the way, the traction off/on was on (not the trac) and then my car jerks back, like a backfire, almost stalling my car, well at least i thought it would.

when I got home, i noticed the lights were sorta dim, and my cd player was going on and off.

My alternator has recently been replaced as well.

So my questions is, whats going on???? im not sure if this is electric or mechanic.

I can help you get it to the engine forum.

Have the alt tested and ALL GROUNDS CHECKED, it is not charging.
