  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Mine stalled this morning while stopped at a light. I'd probably been on the road all of a minute or two -- this was just down the block from the house.

Took me by surprise, though; I actually thought somebody bumped me from behind at first, as it was idling totally normal, then a sudden jolt and I realized it was no longer running. It started right back up, no trouble lights, etc, ran fine the 15 min drive to the office up through 55-60mph and multiple subsequent stops.

Anyway, first time it's done it and was kind of weird the way it didn't stumble or anything, just stalled suddenly with a big thump, like stalling a standard transmission car.

Our 2018 G90 5.0 stalled out on us once while waiting in a drive through. Nothing dramatic just the engine stopped almost like cars with auto stop start do. It started right back up and haven’t had any major problems since.

However, a couple months later, we did get a DTC for cold air intake idle control or something but then after a couple days the code cleared on its own. The car does however rough idle only after a cold start.

This was more like letting off the clutch without giving it any throttle, just a sudden, physically noticeable bump and instantly dead.

For what it's worth, it hasn't done it again so far, nor has it exhibited any other idle/shifting irregularities.

Maybe one of those times to cross my fingers and put out of mind.
