X3.... Pull your front o2 sensor out and see how it runs after that. Please disconnect it when doing so.

We've been through this before, and I honestly don't remember the outcome.


It sounds to me like your TC is stuck engaged.

If TQ was stuck engaged then the truck would stall every time he stops. When it locks it "directly" connects the motor and trans, like a clutch on a manual trans. And just like a manual, if you stop and don't disengage the clutch, or if TQ sticks locked, it'll stall.

This is true. Is it possible it could be partially engaging?
