So many things wrong!
Lately every little thing possible has been wrong with my car.
Yesterday, im driving and i hear a churping noise...first thing that came to mind is my throwout bearing, because its the same noise i heard before i just put in this clutch. So i push the clutch in and the noise is gone. Yep...my throwout bearing/clutch is going! It's a Spec Stage 1 Clutch, i just bought it about 4 months ago! I gave it a 500 mile break-in period. And i do my average beating on the car, but its not a every chance i get kind of thing. What can i do about this? Do i have to replace the clutch or maybe since the clutch is stillnew i can just get a throwout bearing?
Another thing is that yesterday my car shut off TWICE at a red light. I was just sitting and iwas listening ot music and all of a sudden it just gets a little quiet and i see my car is off, so i turn it back on and sit there. Thenthe next light it shut right off again.
I always catch my battery charge going to 18and then sometimes it will even jump to 8.
I'm starting tofeel the need to get rid ofmy mustang, but without it i will be a totally different person[&:]

It is a tad bit quiet, but it doesnt meen that its going bad at all? And is it not worth to replace?

Like Adder said a lil chirping isnt that bad, hell mine chirps if im gettin her hott, like 4000 grand every gear, but during normal driving isnt fine, and dont replace the clutch unless its bad too, which i doubt it is(sounds pretty new)
You car could be stallin be many reasons, check you IAC first to see if its dirty, but really its shouldnt matter cuz you caqn run without one....
