BMW 540i Engine Problem

Car stalls when stopping (approaching 0 mph), mostly when warm. Sometimes doesn't stall but will surge/lunge forward instead of stalling as engine speed goes toward 0 and tries to maintain rpm. OK on normal acceleration; OK maintaining speed; sputters on hard accceleration. Doesn't stall when coasting.
airflow sensor? Fuel pump?

What is the history? Has the PCV plate ever been replaced?
