Hello, only in the morning when I start it and put it into drive or reverse the car stalls. I then switch of the ignition and try it again and it stalls, after a few times it then goes into gear, and then throughout the day it will run as normal. I would really appreciate your help please. Thank you.

Hello,

This sounds like you have a torque converter clutch that is stuck and not releasing. Can you take a video of what the car is doing and upload it here in your reply? This way I can be sure also we should run the codes to see if anything comes up.

Please run this test and get back to us.

Cheers, Ken
