Latitude Engine Stalling at Idle

Greetings. Based on the symptoms you describe, specifically the check engine light accompanied by stalling at idle, and given the vehicle's age and mileage, a likely culprit is a leak in the fuel tank ventilation system. This is often due to a defective activated charcoal filter within the EVAP system. Have you noticed any unusual fuel smells, or any hissing sounds near the fuel tank after turning off the engine? Moreover, has the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) been retrieved from the ECU? Knowing the specific code would aid in more accurately diagnosing the fault.

Thanks for the quick reply! I haven't noticed any fuel smells or hissing, to be honest. I don't have the equipment to read the DTC myself. Is there anything else I can check before taking it to a mechanic?

Without access to the DTC, further remote diagnosis becomes significantly more challenging. While it's laudable to attempt preliminary checks, tampering with the EVAP system without proper diagnostic tools and technical understanding can exacerbate the problem or potentially damage other components. Given the likely diagnosis of a defective activated charcoal filter and the potential for more complex issues within the EVAP system, I would strongly advise consulting a qualified technician for a comprehensive assessment. Attempting DIY repairs on such a system can lead to unintended consequences and increased repair costs.

Thanks, that's what I was afraid of. I took it to the shop, and they confirmed it was a leak in the fuel tank ventilation system, the activated charcoal filter was defective. Cost me 275€ to replace. Appreciate the help!
