After the engine of my 2002 Honda CR-V gets hot it shuts off when I am in bumper to bumper to bumper traffic and the car is in drive. This also happens when I stop at a stop sign. The car runs ok if I do not have to stop.
I took the car to the auto technition but no error code is seen.
The trotle body was cleaned but the car still behaves the same way.
What could be the possible reasons for this behaviour?

Thanks for your responses.

Is the engine overheating? There is a s/b 02-075 about engine stalling when the fuel tank is 3/4 full, the engine may stumble or stall after the vehicle comes to a stop. You may want to bring to the dealer and have them update the ECM software to correct the problem.
