The car seems to have lost a good amount of power. When Im stopped, either parked or at a stop light, the idle keeps dropping and then coming back up. Sometimes it dies. It doesn't do this all the time but seems to do it more when the heater is on. I took it in and they replaced the oxygen sensor. It did not help. Do you have any ideas?
