    Question V6 Auto almost stalling at idle

    Just noticed whilst sitting at the lights with the music off that it felt like my engine was about to stall but picked up revs then 2-3 secs late done the same

    Now the car has no mods and has a fresh tank of BP 95octane at them moment

    Any ideas what it could be, Cheers

    i had the same problem ages ago, and if i remember correct, it turned out it was the tps sensor (connected to the underside of the throttle body). if you do happen to check this out it also wouldnt be a bad idea to clean out your throttle body while its off, and clean and reset the iac sensor (the other sensor thats connected to your throttle body). good luck mate
