Engine stalling 2000 nissan maxima

Hello guys,

I have a situation and I needs help. I am new to Nissans I been so used to driving wide body 95 Grand Marquis for so long. I just bought they used 2000 Nissan Maxima a week ago and it has been jerking and stalling braking to a light, idling and sometimes when accelerating. The guy I brought it from said it had something to do with a MAF sensor or a throttle body, but Im not mechanically inclined so I don't know what I'm doing and on top of that, on the dash, the word "SLIP" pops up and engine service light comes on, can somebody please tell me what I have to do to fix this?! Thank u

So you bought A car not knowing what was wrong with it even tho it was doing what you said, I would go to your nearest Autozone and have em read the codes for free and take it from their. For now you can check the brake fluid first to make sure it good. Try turning traction control off if you can while driving and see if the slip light stops. See if that helps, might be an ABS issue IMO....sensor or module....those codes might need A better scanner...dealer.
