The car starts fine but when warmed up and slowing down for traffic lights the car stalls. the car will start again straight away but not idle . this problem is not always but annoying . please can someone help
You may find the throttle position sensor (TPS) needs adjusting or the throttle plate is gummed up and not closing completely. The other two possibilities are the coolant temp sensor and air temperature sensor.

My 92 charade hatchback does the exact same thing and i've been told by everyone it is the throttle positioning sensor...the only problem is who in the hell can i get one of these off of? i've looked EVERYWHERE and noone has the part
Hey my charade 94 auto has an idling prob:
in park or neutral, when you rev it, then take your foot off the accelarator, it stays at high revs and then slowly comes down.
also the auto box has trouble selecting 1st or 2nd, and sometimes switches between the two for a while when taking off, making it really jerky.
maby this is all to do with the throttle pos sensor? i dont know. would make sense tho.
What engine are we talking about?
