I have a 1999 chrysler sebring coupe with a 2.5 v6 engine.My problem is the car idles rough and misses at low rpm.But it runs good on the road no problems. When i let off the gas like going down a hill or going to stop at a stop light the rpm's drop to 0 and dies.The car starts back up ok and i can drive off ok.It justs stalls when i going to stop.Other than that it runs fine.I just put a new distributor on it today and it did nothing to help.Can you solve my problem please.

First of all, a 2.5 is a 4 cyl.. I noticed you stated it was a 6 cylinder, 6 cyl. are 3.0. it is important to know if it is a 4 or 6 cyl to correct this type of problem. this problem is either carburetor related or something the fuel line. try losening the gas cap and the drive to see if this corrects problem. could be vapor locked......mike

SOURCE: Our Chrysler Cirrus 2000, developed a very rough idle.

Mine is doing the same thing. My check engine light did finally come on and when a reader was put on it the code is P0505 on the reader. When I looked that up it said "Idle air control system". I phoned my mechanic and he said to bring it in next week before it turns into a more serious problem. So far it hasn't stalled, but it makes me nervous. I am on oxygen, so I don't want to get stuck somewhere if it breaks down. So it will be going in for sure.
Hope it isn't expensive as I am on disability.

SOURCE: I can't locate the fuel filter on my 2004 chrysler

I would check if it is in the gas tank on that model. you can go to your local parts store and they should be able to inform you of this.

SOURCE: Can't find the timing marks on '97 Chrysler Sebring 2.5L V6

Crank mark is obvious but cam marks arent. There are two notches in the tin timing covers behind the cam gears. At about the 2 oclock positions

Testimonial: "Thanks! Turns out we busted the valves when we tried to turn her over, but this would have been great advice if I had asked before hand."

1999 chrysler sebring low oil pressure at idle

It may be the oil pump. If the gauge is going up when the rpms increase it's probably not the gauge or pressure switch. If the computer senses the oil pressure is low it will shut the vehicle off to try to save it's self from catastrophic failure. Also it may start cranking longer before starting. Thats it building oil pressure before the computer will let it start. Make sure oil is full, clean & thick.

Hello Experts, 1999 Chrysler Sebring LXi v6 2.5L. Car had a hard time starting. It would turn over but not start. When it did start, it would run and idle fine for about 4 minutes and then die. I've...

to reset the computer simply unplug the battery for about 30 minutes.

However, you have a different problem I believe. you need to check your plugs and wires/coil packs. A fouled spark plug will cause rough running at any speed.

93 cavalier vibrating

your probably feeling a rough idle of the engine. need a tune up?

in park the engine is not loaded down, just idling at a low rpm=rough
in drive with brake on you have put some load on motor also at low rpm=rough
in drive on the road engine is at higher rpm, = smoother

generally 4 cylinder motors idle a bit rough, especially if one spark plug is not firing right or fouled or one bad spark plug wire. tune up may fix it. if it is not stumbling real bad or stalling then you can live with it.
