[QUOTE="Greg Scharlach 2, post: 1021705, member: 72409"] I have an 04 XLT 2WD, all stock, with 151K...have never had any problems other than routine wear and tear. However, about a 6 weeks ago I was at a stoplight when it stalled...first time ever. It started right back up but then stalled as soon as I put it back in gear. Had it towed to a trusted shop and they couldn't find anything wrong...nor could they get it to repeat the problem. Took it home and it happened again the next day. Again at a stoplight after highway driving. Exact same symptoms...but interestingly I tried putting it in REVERSE and it did not stall...only when I put it back in drive. So after I pushed it to a parking lot and was contemplating calling for the tow truck, I tried it again and was able to drive away just fine. I went straight to same shop to get it checked and again same results...no codes, couldn't get it to repeat, nothing. So I hesitantly kept driving and had no issues for about 4 weeks, then it happened again twice in the same day this past Friday. Both times at stoplights after highway driving. This time I again just sat there for about 5 minutes and was able to drive away each time after letting it sit. So it's been 4 more days and no repeat problems...but clearly something is wrong and I can't keep driving around worried it will happen again. I'm not mechanically inclined but do trust my shop...what could they have missed? Any ideas? Anyone else ever experienced this? Thanks, Greg [/QUOTE]
