blklgt Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 i have a 5eat and it keeps stalling when coming to a stop. some times it will catch itself and stumble. i took it back to verocious motor sports.. (tuner) and he installed a moroso oil catch can atmosphere vented, and he adjusted the idle values to idle up 3% when coming to a stop but it was too much and the car would jump so he went w 1% and it stalled again.. i have no cel and dont know what else to do.

Eclipse17 Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 I had this issue a few months ago and the reason my car was stalling was because there was a hole at the bottom of my radiator and coolant leaked out to the point where the was no coolant left in my car. You should check if your coolant level is low or none at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
