Ok my car sometimes when I start it will just die right away. I can start it back up no problem, when I come to a stop it will also just die and start right back up. It will also just die when I am driveing it kind of stumbles the dash lights will come on and than it catchs it's self and starts running again. I have had my machanic look at it and the dealership nobody seems to know what the problem is so any sugjestions would be great.


thank you for you time

Just trying to narrow things down. So you should have good wires, plugs, (coil pack?)and a good air filter. So its probably not spark or air related. Maybe an electrical problem or possibly a fuel problem.
 
How about your fuel filter? A clogged fuel filter can cause some of those symptoms. And normally, it was cause the car to be jumpy at lower speeds. Like it's wanting to die.
