Default Point of Concern

Hope this is the correct area to post this question. My'06 V6 is having a issue and was wondering if anyone else had the same one. After drive on a trip for about an hour or so at a steady 75 or so, when I pull of the Interstate to the stop sign or red light and then start to move again it the engine tries to cut out and it dies on me once. This is the only time it happens. Any ideas? Thanks for the help with my other questions so far.

Personally, I have no idea what could be wrong with your car because I have zero experience dealing with those new 4.0 engines. However, we have alot of really knowledgeable people in the '05+ V6 section who, I am sure, would be happy to help you out. I will move this thread to that section

Thanks,
Sunroof was put in at a place called A.C. Sports in North Little Rock, AR. Love it, it is set up to close when he car is turned off, so no rain in the seats.

I suck at working on cars. I can tinker with a computer all day long and do some work on a motorcycle, but I am about as big a dip on cars as you can find. Always wished I could do more with them, my older brother got that gene in the kids.
