FrostyCab 0 Posted October 24, 2010 Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 Possible the lambda?My corrado VR6 has this exact same problem and I'm running a new MAF, Plugs, Blue Temp sensor and a perfect ISV (Yes I changed the lot!)Only thing left in the loop is the lambda probe which I've yet to change.If it helps, when you come to a junction in the meantime the only way of stopping the corrado from stalling is to dip the clutch as late as possible eg; when the revs have dipped below 1000rpm with the clutch still engaged.

garrett281083 0 Posted October 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 i took my car to the dubz unit today and had a new magnetex exaust, fuse box which was water damaged,and new pllugs and leads again. and my car goes like the rocket it should. incredible diff. but still got that stalling issue to fix. let me no if you fit a new lambda b4 me mate and how you get on. car didnt idle bad to be honest when i drove it back. but im sure that will change lol. 1 thing for sure its def not fully cured yet.
