Hi
On my way home my car stalled (never happened before) no problem I thought I must have let the clutch out abit to much while I was queuing in some traffic. Thing is when I pulled up at a set of lights the revs dropped right down to the point of stalling ( but I managed to catch it) it did this one more time while approaching a junction but the strange thing is each time it happened I could hear clicking from the dashboard area.
Any ideas?
Cheers

Idle Control Valve?
It clicks when about to stall, that's normal. Otherwise could be immo problem or any number of things.

Won't be immo, a faulty immo won't cut out the engine...it will just prevent it from starting
