I am facing the following problem with my car: when I slow down and specially when I stop moving my RPM goes down under 500 and it won't take petrol anymore even I step on the petrol pedal and at the end the engine will shut down and I have to restart it. I took it to a mechanician which checked the petrol pump and the fuel sensor and changed them and the problem persists. We tried to connect to a scanner till the problem happened again but the scanner showed no error.
