Subaru legacy 2012

Asked by lilashes14 Oct 04, 2015 at 10:02 AM about the 2012 Subaru Legacy

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

When coming to a stop or not even trying to stop just try to slow down before a red light, my car stutters and then stalls. Sometimes if i can either try to speed up a little bit to keep it from stalling out. It doesn't happen all the time but it is starting to get very annoying. A coworker of mine said it was the air filter but I had it replaced and it still doing it. I just want other peoples thoughts before I go to a shop and get charged an arm and leg to find out maybe that it was something simple.

Try pumping the brakes after you start your car and after it’s warmed up to make sure it isn’t a leak in your booster. Otherwise, ask a legacy forum and take it to a shop. HTH
