05 ram rough idle stalling at stops! Please Help
Hello everyone I did not go an dintroduce myself yet but I wanted to put this post up asap. I bought an 05 laramie about 2 months ago and about a month after I bought it the truck started rough idling and when I would come to stop sign or light the idle would drop and the truck would sometimes stall or "catch" itself before it stalled. I took it back to where I bought it (not a dodge dealer, I have a 3 month warranty). Since the engine light is not on, it is difficult to find the problem. They cleaned out the throttle body, replaced the air sensor that is in the air intake tube and I get it back and it does it again. I bring it back to them and they replace the EGR valve. I get it back and it does it again! I finally get these people to let me bring it to a dodge dealer down the road and the dealer puts it on the computer and they said it was an aftermarket EGR valve and it wont work with dodge so they replace it with another one and they say everyting is ok. I get it back and it ran great for a day, next day at a light stalls! I am frustrated. I read a couple of older posts on here and other sites and they all talk about these things I listed and possible the vacum system? Anyone have any ideas any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks and sorry for the long post, I will look at this thread first thing tomorrow thanks

Yeah mine through a code for the ABS sensor and caused all sorts of weird crap to happen (no Cruise control, truck would stall coming to a stop or shutter a bit) NO CEL ever popped up but with the way it was acting I just checed it doing the key cycle anyways and sure enough a couple codes popped up. So its always a good idea to run through and check things even if there is no CEL showing.

IDC- idle control valve, clean or replace.
Vacuum- check all lines for cracks, or missing connections. If all are good go ahead and replace gas cap I know this sounds weird but if it does not create a good seal it will suck air and make your EGR valve mix more air than gas.
Other than these 2 things only thing I can think of is something else in your fuel system, clogged filter or bad injector maybe but unlikley.
