2005 GMC Sierra Z71 keeps stalling out
 
What do you think the problem is? I've had it to the dealer (did not return DTC codes), but they cannot find a problem. Problem details below:

I have a 2005 GMC Sierra Z71 (5.3 motor, 14,807 miles). When I slow to a stop at a stop sign, red light, or in traffic, or while slowing down to make a left or right turn the RPM's will drop to 200 - 300 and struggle to stay running, and most of the time it will just stall out and shut off, unless I can give it gas to stay stared. Now, this doesn't happen all the time. It is intermittent and may happen once or twice a day, or may happen once every week or couple of weeks. There may be a week or two it doesn't happen. The dealer had it for a day and couldn't find anything wrong. Does anyone have any thoughts as to what the problem might be? The only mods I have are a K&N cold air intake (no I don't use the cleaning oil, I know that screws up the MAF), and a cat back dual exhaust with flowmaster muffler.

I also have a 2005 GMC Sierra Z71 crew cab. It has about 43,000 miles on it. It stalls sometime at a stop or when you are stopped and crank the wheel hard it brings down the rpm's and kills it. No codes are set. The stalling at a stop is intermittent. All the symtoms you describe are the same. Mine is all factory. If I find any news I will repost. Just wanted to say you are not alone.
