Runs great, except It just started stalling when I come to a stop, someone told me I just might need a tune up which I just got done and its still doing the same thing, so I took it to autozone and the codes I got were p0700 and p1793 they couldn't tell me what was wrong and I cant afford to take it to a dealership! Any advice? Everything else is good with my car and no check engine light is on.

These codes have nothing it do with the car stalling it sounds more like the crankshaft angle sensor is going bad which will not set a code. Here is a guide to help you see what you are in for when doing the job and the location of the sensor so you can replace it to see what happens changes are the transmission codes will go away once the engine running correctly.
