Hello All,

I have a 2003 Nissan March. When I start the car, it starts just fine but stops after a 2-3 seconds. When i give it gas as it starts it runs fine and and I have no isses. I have also noticed that after running the car, stop and start the car it will start and run with out me having to give it gas.

Lately, i have noticed that when i come to stop, the car rough idels and sometimes stops. I can start it fine with aout any problem.

Please HELP.

Start with the basics. Give it a new tune up. New spark plugs and filters.

If after that it still does it, you need to check the idle air control valve, EGR, throttle position sensor, mass air flow sensor, intake air temp sensor and engine temp sensor, to start with.
