3. Check idle air valve operation (mechanic job)
The service engine light finally came on and it identified the Mass Air flow sensor is bad.
The car might need a tuneup . also the problem might be related to fuel injectors that are not working properly.
5 times 5=25 or just add 5 5 times and u get 25
I had the same problem before with a 2000 max GXE. My car has a standard transmission and sometimes if I took it out of gear the car woould shut down a 50MPH. Took it to dealer and somehou the ECM lost the program. There could be more issues like I was planing to change the Idle valve, although since there were no codes I decided to take it to the dealer. It cost me $105 but it was better than me hunting in the dark. My 2 cents
2001 missan altima emgine runs stall at a traffic light but engine does not cut off.
Sounds like you may have a vacuum leak- check under the hood and under dash area
mass air flow sensor
Numerous things could cause the Nissan Altima to stall. One such thing is the idle control valve, also the exhaust system could cause the engine to stall.
Check your spark plugs and leads.
you have a vacumn leak.
change air and fuel filter, plugs and wires
One of the reasons for a 2003 Nissan Sentra to run rough and stall out when it comes to stop is a bad oxygen sensor. Another cause for the running rough could also be a dirty air cleaner.
