Okay, last Thursday I saw my charge go down rapidly. After I turned the engine off, it would restart, just clicking, I got a "check charging system" briefly come up. Towed it to a local garage and they can't look at it until tomorrow. When I asked for an update though, he said it started right up and the charge was fine. So I guess they're going to check the electrical system. The car is stock but I recently had a new Harmonic Balancer put in. Would that affect anything? Anyone else have any ideas? Very strange.
Thanks.

I’d let your garage diagnosis since they will be looking at it…we can only guess here.

I would say it's time for a new battery.
