Nissan Primera 1999 Stalls - grape rat
If I slow down from fast to stop with my clutch in, the revs go down and engine will sometimes stall.
Never had any problems with this car and only done 64k. It is due for a service but has been main services regular.
Thanks!

Very likely the throttle body. Get some carb cleaner, give at blast and scrub out with an old toothbrush. Then wipe clean with kitchen towel.

Many thanks to jag and Aprila for the advise.

I have no idea where the throttle body is - maybe I'll get it serviced and ask the garage to do it.

BTW, I had described the problem to the Nissan dealer who suggested they give it a test drive etc (sounded expensive). The mechnic round the corner suggested clening something (it could have been the throttle body but can't remember). Its booked in at Nissan but I'm thinking of just taking it to the local guy (cheaper as well).

Thanks!
