Recently my car has been giving me issues when I am braking and stopping. Sometimes it will just idle extremely low where it seems like it is about to turn off, and sometimes it does turn off. I am not exactly sure what the problem is but I have replaced both fuel filters, spark plugs, air filter, oil filter, and none of those has changed the idle. I am kind of stumped. Any help would be appreciated.

This is probably fuel injection not a carburetor. Clean throttle plate on both sides and IAC hole with choke cleaner it may take care of the problem. If it is a carburetor you will need it rebuilt or another one.
