I have a problem with my 2010 Impreza 2.5i AT. It stalls on it's first full stop every morning. It stalls almost every morning at the same red light. Once I restart it and it never happens again for the rest of day. I sometimes let the engine warm up for 2 minutes prior to driving off, but no difference. It still stalls.

It's really very strange.

What can I say to my mechanic to point him in the right direction you think?
 
Air filter, cleaned the MAF recently?

Idle relearn procedure helps also for that issue.

1) Turn off the lights, aircon, stereo or any system in the car that draws extra current on top of the engine.
2) Disconnect the battery for 10 mins.
3) Reconnect the battery.
4) Before you start the car for the first time, turn the key to the ON position but do NOT turn the engine over. Wait 10-15 seconds so the electronic throttle body or IACV has time to go to the factory programmed home position.
5) After waiting, start the car and let it idle without any load, lights, A/C etc.
6) Every 20 seconds or so the idle will be adjusted up and down as the ECU tries to adjust it towards a stoichiometric fuel / air mix.
7) Leave the engine running for a full 10 mins but DO NOT TOUCH THE ACCELERATOR during this time or turn on anything that will cause extra electrical current draw.
8) Turn off the engine, and leave the key in the OFF position for at least 20 sec.
9) As per step (4) turn the key back to the ON position for 10-15 sec without actually starting the engine.
10) Start the engine and leave to idle for a further 5 minutes without touching the accelerator and without turning on other systems in the car.
11) Turn off the engine again and wait at least 20 sec before restarting.
12) Take the car for a test drive as the ECU should now be fully retrained.
 
How long have you had the car? Where do you park it? Does the car have a distance starter? Do you have an alarm that has a kill switch? Do the RPMs fluctuate at all when driving?

Does it stall if the light is green?



How about yellow.

Maybe the mods should clean this thread up so that not all car conversations derail into OT drivel? One can dream.
