Replace your battery when its being tested there not testing it under a heavy enough load. A battery could have a dead cell in it and still show good on the charger. I've had that problem a few times.

Fault with the IAC valve.there maybe a trouble code associated with it also./ Go to your nearby autozone or auto parts retailer and ask them to put a scanner to the car....make note of the codes if any are found. the IAC valve i usually locate don the throttle body and can be removed for inspection and sometimes cleaning using a good throttle body cleaner spray and a pipe cleaner brush.

2006 Chevy Cobalt power dying with new battery in it, is it the starter?

If the car died while you where driving it, it sounds like it is the alternator. Did it start right up or did you have to boost it? If you had to boost it to start it again,I would say it is the alt., but if it started right away w/o a boost, it is something else.

My battery keeps dying in my 2006 honda accord 2.0 One night and battery is flat.I dont know what to do!

Your alternator could be messed up.. also your battery could be done for... batteries die eventually.. I would definitly start at alternator and get a battery hydrometer test for your car..
