Soo, I just got my 03 TL a month ago and all of a sudden, as I'm coming to a complete stop, the car shuts off. I'm able to restart, but at every stop, off it goes. Brought to Autozone, they said replace spark plugs. I did, no differance. Now, the exhaust is smoking every now and then and smells. Forgive me for my ignorance, but any ideas?

 

Welcome.

Clean the IACV, throttle plate and while your at it also clean out the EGR.
Whats the mileage on your TL ?

 

At first it sounds like IACV but IACV wont create smoke... What color is the smoke? is it constant? or just when WOT?

 

Hey RIRebel17, is the CEL light on or does it intermittently flicker as you're coming to a stop ?
Have the codes checked at any auto parts store for free and post them here.

Is the idle speed really low ? How does the car run at highway speeds ?
How did the plugs appear when ya took them out ? How does the exhaust smoke look and smell ?

Read the 2nd Gen "DIY" sticky for common problems and fixes.
Maybe bad gas or something gunked up and needing cleaned.
