Ok have been having stalling issues for sometime now, 1999 omega, 2ltr 16v CDX A

Today was the worse day normally it will stall and then restart and run fine till the next time. Today however Stalled 11 times coming out of a multi car park twice on the down ramp. Then the Auto gearbox went. Normally fuse number 9 but it is fine. Then stalled everytime i took my foot off the throttle, till the battery died! Now parked up awaiting tow. Any ideas ?

any lights on (eml/spanner etc) or errors on the display ?

can you get the codes read, or do the paperclip or pedal trick http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/index.php?topic=90581.0 if yours will do that

The lights come on just before it stall's, I will get the fault codes read in a couple of days it is running a river outside today.

The only display message was the auto gearbox when it went into limp mode, I also get a coolant warning but have had that for nearly two years

Could be something as simple as a fuel filter change.
