1999 altima dies at stops or sudden low rpm,s. Nissan did a lot of work on the fuel system and finally increased the idle speed. They said it would probably happen again later. Do I need to accept this and continually put it in the shop? Thanks, Mark

Hi Mark,

Since you had already spent $ and time on it and they are responsible for getting it rectified let them continue unless you want to give up on them.

Fuel system seldom cause stalling at idling unless it is the injectors.

I would suspect the idling system, eg air flow or any other sensors related.
