Less power !!?!

Hello, during these last 3 days i experienced some troubles with my 2009 Yaris.
It is powered by a 2NZ-Fe. Here what i noticed:

- engine On + A/C On = engine vibrating massively as if it is going to shutt donw
- engine On + head lights On = when i apply gas lights become brighter , when i release gas lights become less bright and engine starts vibrating
- less power on the road
- A/C goes Off and On all the way

What i did:
- checked air filter ( replaced new one)
- thought may be poor gas and i filled it with new one
- checked A/C cooling liquide and its fine
What do you suggest???

I would inspect your belts, and possibly the alternator.

Your symptoms sound like it's the battery.

Either weak from not being charged, or just old and ready to be replaced.

How old is your battery?
