    Default ATX Stalling?

    Well, as the title says, i was pulling into my garage and it just randomly shut off. It turned right back on with no problems. I noticed at red lights its almost as if it wants to stall, and sometimes vibrates Any ideas? Im getting ready to post this up for sale its really getting annoying. I cant deal with problems after problems everyday.

    well, obviously most of us cant tell you exactly what the problem is without looking at the car.

    do you have any CEL's?

    nop nothing at all. The only thing that i can notice thats getting worse is the gurgling noise at cold morning startups but that will be checked outby the dealer on the 3rd of nov. Now its just engine turning off that just popped outta the blues. I also noticed that only today, my car is starting to make sounds almost as if something is in my trunk and rolling around hitting the walls as i turn or go over bumps. There isnt anything in my trunk, not the spare tire or anything, im not too sure what that is either.

    have you purchased your car used?
    if so i would suggest to check the suspension/sway bars and/or exhaust hangers for the noise in the rear.

    the stalling might be caused by a variety of things so if you still have warranty, just let the dealer check it out.

    Just got under, the hangers are still there and attached to the car, the exhaust doesnt seem to be extremely loose in any way. The suspension loooks just fine i had someone push down it was springing smoothley. I dont know what else to check.. Its really weird because just yesterday this started and everytime i go up a curb ie my driveway on an angle, it just creeks as if its going to snap in 2 peices it also happens when im just plain turning it makes very small creeking sounds coming bring near the ciggaratte outlet near the tray.
