Why does my car stall when I slow down?

I have a 2010 Subaru Forester diesel. It sometimes stalls when I'm slowing down. My local garage cannot find a fault. I started using Esso supreme diesel which seemed to work for a while but it has done it several times recently. Any ideas of possible causes?
