My car would stall in traffic, stall while idling at stop lights, various things were replaced in the last year, including the speed sensor, and it still is doing it. It loses power at times while maintaining 60 mph, shimmies and shakes at idle when stopped in traffic, it sometimes "hiccips", appears to stop then accelerates again while driving on the highway. *Nm
