First thing you need to do is have the computer scanned for trouble codes. When the check engine light is on, the computer is bypassing a component which can affect fuel mileage and performance.
Transmission speed sensor loss of signal will not allow torque converter lock up (no overdrive). Transmission filter should be serviced at 80,000 miles. Perform an OBDII scan for stored fault history. The scan should show any issues with trans. sensors or solenoids that can be addressed during trans. service. Let the ODBII scan be your guide to any repairs to avoid buying parts you don't need.
As a first course of action I strongly suggest that you have the car scanned to know the fault code and the fix. But I do suspect that you have a faulty MAF (mass air flow) sensor and TPS (throttle position sensor). If one of these sensors are faulty, stalling can really occur. Have it replaced and you'll be good.
Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa! Have a good one!
ENGINE STALL WHILE DRIVING COULD BE STOPPED UP FUEL FILTER OR FAULTY FUEL PUMP.IDLE SPEED TOO LOW.OR IGNITION COIL HAS A LOOSE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION.FAULTY IGNITION MODULE.BAD PLUGS AND WIRES. I WOULD DO A LITTLE TUNE UP.CHANGE FUEL FILTER AND AIR FILTER.IF SPARK PLUGS AND WIRES HAS OVER 30000 MILES ON THEM I WOULD CHANGE THEM.ALSO FUEL FILTER IF OVER 30000 MILES.CHANGE IT CLEAN FUEL INJECTORS. TO TROUBLE SHOOT CAR I WILL DO A LITTLE TUNE UP FIRST TO MAKE EVERYTHING TOP NOTCH ON THE ENGINE BEFORE I GO TO NEXT LEVEL.BUYING NEW PARTS DONT NEED.GET VECHICLE SCANNED WITH A SCANNER. THAT WILL ALSO PIN POINT PROBLEM QUICKLY.BUT DO THE LITTLE TUNE UP FIRST IF EVERYTHING PAST 30000 MILES MARK.SCAN VECHICLE FOR FAULTY IDLE SPEED CODES OR FAULTY IGNITION MODULE CODE THEY WILL COST MORE MONEY TO FIX.PARTS HIGH.
IT MEANS THAT ONE OR MORE OF ABOUT 200 FAULTS HAS OCCURED IN THE ENGINE OR THE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS, AT THIS POINT U WILL NEED TO HAVE THE SYSTEM TESTED FOR FAULT CODES, KRAGEN AND AUTOZONE DO THIS CODE TEST FOR FREE, FIND OUT THE CODES AND WRITE THEM DOWM THEN POST THEM BACK ON THIS THREAD FOR ME TO LOOK AT AND GIVE U SOME IDEA OF THE PROBLEEMS U HAVE TO FIX
you would need a scan tool to reset it, if it is the gas cap and you fixed the problem with it then the light will go out after 100 miles of driving with a couple of cold starts. if it doesnt go out after a few days of driving then that wasnt the problem.
It depend on the code. there are a lot of things other than the O2 sensors. Have it scanned and bring the code back to this sight so we can tell what the problem is.
Most Advance and Autozone store will scan it for free.
