The engine will also stall approaching junctions as I change down the gearbox. This is dangerous as the power steering goes and the brakes aren't as useful.
I have had the oxygen sensor replaced, the fuel-tank vent valve, and the air mass meter and the problem still happens. The car has been on the BMW main dealers computer and guess what - it reports nothing wrong with it.
This has been happenning for 18 months now and I'm getting desperate to resolve this as I have almost crashed on many occasions.
If anyone could shed any light on this I would be very grateful.
