Have changed 2 pre lambda sensors, eng mgt light still on and flashes periodically. Runs well when moving but stalls when crawling to junctions, do I need to get eng mgt light taken off by garage or am I missing something else?

check for misfire on cylinders .. this will sometimes set a lambda sensor code .. repace plugs/coils .. also remove clean or replace the crankshaft position sensor !
