Engine stalls while idling at temperatures under minus 20 degrees C. And while driving engine will stop but continues to drive right away. After engine stalls it will always start up again right away.

Check your intake manifold gasket, if there is a leak water, dirt, or anything contaminant is getting through and blocking off your engine at times.make sure your are using correct oil and synthetic for cold winters 5w-30. Make sure you have gotten a recent tune up. Take it to a mechanic and run a full diagnostic whereby he will assure you to find the problem. Also check coolant and IAC Idle air control valve. But check with mechanic first to save money!
