My car keeps shutting off when idle..

Excuse my errors..on cellphone..

Fuel pump and filter are inside the gas tank. And no, even if overdue, oil change has nothing to do with it ..as far as the rest of your question, the stalling, hopefully somebody will come by to help you on that. Without the car I have no clue

Its a 2002 chevy impala

there is a link that goes from the throttle to the kickdown on the transmission. perhaps this was adjusted a little loose?....or tight, depends on your geometry there.

Idle air control sensor. carbon build causes this problem

Maybe the mechanic left a vacuum line of the transmission .

hi im a mechanics student have you checked your coolant temp sensor? that can cause most of the symptoms youve decribed

I just love everything impala but I'm in a predicament now with my two...I bought two with my skool money....one is a 2001 Base it came with bad transmission but I put a lot of fluid and Lucas it worked for 3months but eventually jus stopped after 5min of driving...

The second is an 05ls but recently it jus started shaking violently wen I try to start it and jus dies.....on the highway it said hot coolant...doesn't let me go certain speed..it

fergie is right on this answer ,, even though you had the trans work done its probably not even related it sound to me to be a dirty throttle body . this is common in all cars now days , so when your comeing to a stop it wants to die , and sometimes it take time to restart unless you have your foot on the throttle , and if you turn the air conditioner its even worse , What you do is take some carb cleaner or even brake cleaner get a rag get it wet with the chemical while car is off open the throttle plate and clean all the black stuff off. then spray the throttle plates off with a little more cleaner and then restart vehicle, Note : it will be hard to start but just hold pedal down to get it started as if it is flooded and dont rev it high to damage anything , try this its only 9 dollars to fix the problem for the cleaner.

my 2003 impala is doing the same only my car will die while driving 35 mph. so far we have replaced, cam sensor, crank shaft sensor, mass air flow and last week it was the main ignition module - all new parts. the car was better for a few days then boom It started all over again only this time it stalls out more often. so far the cost has been over $600 in parts & labor. back to the drawing board.

I also have a 1998 Nissan maxima and does the same the RPM goes up and down and then it dies but turns on right away, All this started when I had my transmission changed, could this be a trans problem? they told me it was the ignition coils $100 each and that did not fix anything

@JOHNBench My 2008 Kia Rio is doing the exact same thing. Did you ever figure out what it was?

I have a 2002 Chevy impala and only when I come to a stop it shakes. Nothing else really wrong just the shaking and check engine light on. Idk what the problem is and just had a tune up and engine/transmission worked on. Help please

04 CRANKS UP RUN WELL UNTIL I PUT IN DRIVE IF it STAYS CRUNK IT SHUT OFF WHEN IM TURNING L OR R.

replace the fuel relay if this only happens once in a while

I advice everyone to to contact corporate office regarding the car issue. With the issue of everything you've replace on your car an when u take you place your foot on the break petal your car cuts off. For me its a safety issue because i have kids. An almost got hit an couldn't turn the wheel an cut on my emergency lights. Without the help of the knowledge an letting corporate know the issue they cant issue a recall.

I have the same problem with my Astro Van. I changed the fuel filter and spark plugs and still doing the same.

Have the battery checked. My 04 impala was stalling out when I would take my foot of the gas at any speed. Had the battery and alternator checked the battery was bad. Had the same problem 3 1-2 years ago too that's how I knew what it was this time

Hey guys I have three impalas clean out your throttle body with throttle body cleaner use a wire brush, and a towel, change tps and idle control valve they are clogged with carbon. And change your octane to take at 89.

Gunk build up on throttle guys maybe try, gumout jet spray clean. it may help some, also clean (yourself) the MAF ( mass air flow) with maf cdc spray I believe it's called you'll be suprise that spending at least $15 on these two spray can make a big diffrence on rough or idle , start, engines. Hope this helps>>>only try this if you did a tune up recently already .Or do so, remember spark plugs wont work right without new spark plug wires, no disrespect have lots of friend cars they buyed one and not the other cause they thought the wires was great.
