AMG GT Stalling Issue Resolved

My 2017 AMG GT gasoline engine is acting up The engine light is on, and it keeps stalling when I stop It only has a few kilometers on it Could it be a bad gas cap or something with the fuel tank I saw mentions of a purge valve online Does anyone know anything about this before I have to take it for repair

The symptoms you describe are consistent with a malfunctioning tank ventilation valve, often called a purge valve A similar issue occurred with my AMG GT Have you investigated the possibility of clogged hoses connected to the valve and fuel tank This can prevent proper ventilation

Clogged hoses, huh I didn't think of that Where are those hoses located Are they easy to get to, or will I need some special tools to check them I am not sure what to look for

The hoses are situated near the engine and the fuel tank Due to the vehicle's complexity and potentially sensitive components, I would advise against attempting repair without proper equipment and expertise A professional repair shop can diagnose the issue accurately, thus averting unintended complications

Thanks for the advice I took the car to my local guy, and you were right Turns out some of the hoses were clogged They cleared them out, replaced the purge valve, and the engine light is off Runs like new again Cost me around 175€ Appreciate the help
