I have a Maxima 2000, 138000 miles. During this Midwest below-
freezing weather snap, my car has started fine, but has died a couple
times about 30 seconds soon after starting. This is usually after I
leave my car parked in the parking garage for about 10+ hours. The
car starts up again and I don't have another problem with it as I
drive home. Of note, my battery and brake lights were flashing last
week and I took it into the shop and was told I needed a new
alternator, which I had the mechanics replace. My battery and brake
lights don't flash anymore, but now my car seems to die as described
above. Did the mechanics miss something, or is this all freezing cold
related? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

My '87 maxima did that until I gave it a tune up, Fuel System Cleaner and a
New Air Filter. Ever since then, no problems other than an alternator
replaced 6,000 miles ago.
