Hey guys, this morning on the way to work my TPS was saying I had a flat, but everything looked fine, pressure was good. I reset and went on with my day. 1hour ago my car just stalled in reverse, and just 10mins ago it did it again. Did this ever happen to anybody? hopefully I don't have serious problems arising before Christmas. Thanks to anybody who can advise me with this issue.

Ah it happened again...The stalling typically occurs after the engine is fully warmed up when stopped in traffic or at a light. There is also sometimes a slight hesitation (hic-up) on initial acceleration. No problem with top-end power.

A couple months ago I ran out of gas...and someone brought over some regular gas to get me going. Could their be some relation?

I really hope its not the transmission.

Running out of gas is BaaAad for an engine.

My initial bet is on a bad injector(s).

Next would be fuel pump.

cars in the dealer shop...they are saying its the ignition/starter that's gone bad. Total surprise given the problem, would never had guessed. They are currently checking if my extended warranty is going to cover it.
