Does anyone have any other suggestions? Mine does the same thing-- I cold start it, and whenever I come to a complete stop, it idles low, the car starts to shake, and eventually shuts off. I end up having to put it in park (in the middle of the road, might I add!) and start it back up. The dealer and everywhere else I've taken it doesn't know what's wrong with it. I'm desparate-- any suggestions?

One of the first things I would check is the overload protection relay. As the relay begins to go bad resistance builds across the contacts and becomes the limiting factor in the supply of current to the idle valve instead of the ecm. This situation causes the idle valve to fail to open fully.
