Whats wrong?
I stopped at a stoplight earlier today and for some odd reason all my gauges dropped down. Also the car was shaking (I guess would be the best way to describe it) really bad, almost felt like the car was losing battery power. I put it in park to go turn it off but all of a sudden my gauges rose and was alright after that. Would/Could it be an alternator problem? If there is something you guys need to know more of let me know. Thanks for the help!

Im not very smart when it comes to stuff like that, as far as a light coming on or anything noticeable, then nope.

Because when the alt died on my old bird and wouldn't charge the battery, it started to sacrifice the abs traction and said my ebrake was pulled to save power!! Also my speedo and rpm gauge went crazy!!

Nothing came on and it was fine after that. I drove it for another 15 mins home and it ran fine. Its weird that it happen.

Now that I think about it my light did not come on but my brakes did feel a little different like not as "soft" as they usually are, if that makes any sense.

Sounds like it tried to stall. Have you cleaned your throttle body lately?
