I backed out of a parking spot and proceeded through the parking lot and turned left onto busy road. All of the sudden the car shut off and I was stuck in the middle of oncoming traffic. I was able to re-start the engine and made it safely to my next stop. When I tried to start the engine again it started but shut off right away. This happened several times. I had the vehicle towed to the dealership and it started when it got there and they said it was probably due to the type of gas I used. They said that gas stations switch to a different type of fuel in the fall/winter and that it can cause this to happen.

Experiencing a thump as the ingition is released from the start position or as the engine starts.this noise occurs only on a cold start,usually overnight. Dealer mechanic tells me that the noise appears to be coming from the rear motor mount. Honda has issued a service bulletin pertaining to this noise,but the dealer mechanic tells me that hnnda's service engineers tells him that the service bulletin pertains to the honda 4cyl only, and not the 6cyl it seems to me that the service bulletin issued for the 2000 honda 4cyl. Should also cover the 2000 honda 6cyl. In closing I might add that this same type noise has also been heard in the honda 2001 6cyl. Thank you for your help.
