01 1,6 Engine stalling when coming to rest - pmh2

Friends car, so I have less detail than I would like, but it does not appear to be engine temperature dependent, but I cannot rule out the current low ambient temperatures having a role. Appears to got worse recently (lower ambients?).

I have asked him to explore different facets based on what he has said to me, (eg clutch position dependent, braking?, gradient, electrical load hrw+ headlights). But I do not necessarily expect an coherent analytical report.

Does it suffer from ICV or equiv problems?

Are there any known fault areas on this model ?

Car is in the South of France, so temperatures are low, but not as low as the UK.

Thanks for thoughts.
