Heat wave issue (35°C)???????????? Stalling at once, but I could drive back home without too much trouble, foot kept on accelerator pedal...
Today, still no MIL light on, but feeling like one cylinder could be missing fire!!! Spark plug lead disconnected???
Stalling within 1 second, I mean!
I even feel unable to get out of the yard for a road test, alas. Much too hot today for any engine failure...

I did read few pages since issue... IACV reset (when warm?!?), etc.
Not an unstable IDLE but none at all!
Being lazy (until I need to remove engine cover), I just asked myself if disconnecting the battery would help?!? No trouble except radio memory. Instead of trying an IACV reset from cold (even already tested)...
I did charged it thinking it was week (12,5V)...
I'm now guessing the alternator belt doesn't like starts & stops...

Took off engine cover this afternoon...
Only tried the little breather hoses disconnection...
One was effective. Too low & unstable revs (5000-9000) idle...
BUT, what does it mean?
Air filter wasn't too neat... Very thin clear dust covering the engine compartment.
At that point, not a huge work to have a check of the stepper motor...
I still wish to understand this lack of air flow somewhere...

No change coming from new air filter, though!
And disconnecting IACV plug or manifold air pressure sensor <=> stalling
