It just stalls for no reason. Sometimes it stalls at a light sometimes it stalls while driving and sometimes it wont stall for a couple of weeks.

Tl*the contact owns a 1998 toyota camry. There was an oil leak inside of the oil filter. The vehicle was taken to an oil change facility where the oil filter was not installed incorrectly and caused oil to leak and damaged the engine. While driving 50 MPH the engine over heated and stalled. The vehicle was towed to a different local mechanic. The second mechanic also informed him that an oil leak along with a damaged filter caused the vehicle to stall. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure and current mileages were 110,000.

Engine starts and stalls. Rpm's won't stay up. Have to use gas and brake together until idle stays up enough to keep car running. Idle speed control valve replaced @ 38,315 mi on 6/20/02. Replaced again @ 45,703 mi on 8/22/03. Service mgr said they have "changed manufacturers, so should be ok now". Problem recurred @ 56,000 miles in mid-june. It's a progressive failure, so will return to dealer in the very near future. This amounts to 3 replaced idle speed control valves in 20,000 miles. Service will replace part, but I must pay labor.
