Emergency guys! Help needed asap
I'm stuck on the road side and my z just shut off on me?! I was driving normally and at the red light I felt the car tremble and gurgle then it shut off. I tried to start it up again and it makes horrible noises but it does sound like it wants to start. I don't know what to do rn I really don't want to call for a tow truck too expensive

sounds like fuel starvation to me. But it could honestly be numerous things

Get an OBD/CAN reader and clear any DTCs.
and/or Try disconnecting one of the battery posts and pressing the brake pedal for a few seconds, reconnect battery post. This will reset the ECM.

Guys... I'm still out here but after a bunch of fiddling around with the possibilities of the cause. My buddy finally came to look at it and he said some Zs had a recall because the fuel reading system was all messed up. It shows I'm at half tank right now but it really means it's empty! Wtf I went to buy a new battery for crying out loud!
