Help Car Dies or surge when braking
background: 96 max @ 95k mile, did the 60k service myself, i have to do a 120k service in the next couple of months
now for the problem: over the last 6-8 months, maybe 1-2 times a month the car would die when i am coming to a stop.
now its happening more frequently, almost 5-6 times a week now...
i have no codes, and the sometimes in the morning i hear a groan and like a sawwing sound when the car idles at the cold start rpm
the car only dies when i am braking or it surges for about 5 seconds if i am hitting the gas really light...its not an everyday problem, but i am not going to wait for it to be a problem. car starts up fine

Mine did the same thing, ended up being the MAF sensor, took forever to diagnose but haven't had any issues since I replaced it.
