It's a 2.4 as well. I have to leave my a/c on at all times for extra assurance but the problem still occurs with the a/c on too. Just not as quickly as with it off. Still have to rev engine to prevent the stalling when braking.

If the problem doesn't go away with the ac on its not the problem I thought it was.Do you have any codes in the computer?I would also try removing the idl air control valve and cleaning it.

I'm not sure about the code thing. But also, my mechanic had asked me today if the stalling occurs after my car warms up and it does. I don't know if that would help in answering or not. They're gonna take another look at it Thursday.
