Mine just died on the way to work one AM as it was idling at a very busy intersection. I pushed it into a right turn downhill and turned into a parking lot. It would crank but not start. Then when I thought the battery was going to die it started and I managed to drive the 2 miles home and park it. I think the optis can get condensation and corrosion and a flake of that can obscure the optical pickup. I took it apart after I removed it and it was pretty ugly in there.
