The likely causes would be 1) plugged EGR valve: The valve gets plugged with carbon deposits over time and needs to be cleaned out. 2) a cracked air intake hose: The cracked hose causes air leakage which throws off the Mass Airflow Sensor, which when sending erroneous information to the computer can cause serious hesitation and stalling at idle.
