Cl almost stalled

Hey guys im a new member and dont know how to do the threads that well but any way, I was driving into a shopping center and stoped completely and the RPMS went down real low
and the car started shaking alittle. I tapped the gas alittle and it was fine but it almost stalled. Any one have this problem before?
Also does any one know of the TL body kit for the Cl. Thanks-

This happens to me once in a while too... not sure what it is.

As for the body kit, several people have done the TL kit on the CL. It will cost you around $2500-$3000 or so to have it molded and installed properly on a CL.

have the same thing happening to me, not to offten, but happen once in a while when I slow down to a stop.....
It seems that this only happens in winter times, I figure its because of winter gas additives.... I had the same happening last winter, and in summer it never happens... could be just coincidence, but so far this has only happened in winter time....

Is there a TSB for this? it could be hard to reproduce, mine does not do this all the times

My service guy said its the "winter mix" of gasoline. My car never did it in the summer, but it has done it once or twice in the last 2 months

As I have posted a few other times mine does this sometimes too. I haven't noticed if its only in the winter time or not. My car has actually stalled twice. Both times after coming to a stop. It hasn't stalled recently but definitely there are days when it feels like it might after coming to a stop.

So what's the outcome of this, can they fix it?
Or they tell you to wait till summer?
