    Exclamation randomly stalling

    hi now this problem im having is becoming a bit more common and i was wondering if anyone could help...at low speeds or sometimes at light throttle but going at 60km/h the car would randomly stall, just for no reason...i would have to put it into neutral (auto) quickly and restart it...now im wondering what could cause this...ive changed the plugs and leads still to no avail....i have no idea whats wrong and im worried that i will be going around the corner and it will stall...just dont want that to happen...also the last time it stalled that drivetrain symbol stayed on, i dont know if that has anything to do with it...its that little orange engine looking one with the lightning symbol if im correct...but yeah if anyone could help me that would be great

    mine has done this too and it stumped me. i was slowly taking off from the side of the road, the car was jerking and spluttering and then stalled. Started it up again (was a bit hard to get started) then the drivetrain light came on..

    The drivetrain light has only ever come on that one time, but every now and then it shudders for a split second when on idle.


    Doesnt really help you i know but id like to know the answer too
