Engine stopped running in drive while coming to a stop. Restarted several times without any problems, but each time I put it in Drive the engine would stop. Finally, after about 8 times it stayed running in drive.

Hi there,

The engine idle is controlled by the ECU, if there is a problem check for any unresolved fault codes, ICM faults, and vacuum leaks, start here.
