No clue what's wrong with the car but imo it's just that the battery was on it's last legs and now is toast and the alternator doesn't provide enough power when idling to keep the car alive.
Except we didn't make it and the car shat the bed in a traffic jam few meters across the Czech border.
We got it jumpstarted and drove home without turning off the engine since we could make it on home on the full tank of gas we had...
I'm the joke, but you're the punchline.
