I have a 2001 Dodge Neon with 147000 miles. I have never had any problems before with the car. I was at a stop light when my car just died. I was able to put into park and was able to restart just fine, and drove about a mile back to my house. No check engine lights came on before it died. I noticed as I was driving the next day that every time I came to a stop, my car starts shaking and stuttering like it wants to quit again. What could this possible be?

Hello,

I would suggest haveing it checked for codes even though the engine light is not on. Some makes and models will not turn engine light on for intermitent problems. However, it sounds like it is possible the MAP Sensor (Manifold Absolute Pressure)
