Our 2012 rt limited se5 was stalling at stop lights and signs because somehow the front spark plug came lose, so I purchashed a set of plugs and plug wires from BahaRon and the problem cleared right up. Ron was very very helpful with our problem. We also have over 20000 miles on her.

Got my spyder a few months ago and I had the same issue which the dealer never found any reason. In fact, it stalled on the way home from the dealer I finally noticed that it happens as I slow down while approaching a stop light. I noticed if I don't keep my foot on the break, but, instead lightly tap the breaks as I approach the light, it does not stall. Thankfully, I learned this trick from this site.

ST Stalls
I got my st-s in Michighan "never stalled" but after coming to Fla. Stalls all the time! after getting in stop and go traffic. It has about 6000 miles on it. I have been to 2 dealers,> got no answers.As I have read in this thread .> I keep throttle up to keep from stalling, hoping if changing to a differnt spark plug will help? I always run best fuel and never let it get low. So if anyone has switched plugs? let me know > what kind? and if you also did the cables?
I also have an 2011 RT and has never stalled
thank you

Any information, advise etc. is much appreciated. Thanks Lori

I have an STS and it stalled several times until I put a custom muffler on it. The engines were built tight and with the cat and stock muffler on, its just too much pressure held at low rpm causing the engine to shut off. Havent shut off since.

Sorry not true these engines(998) are some of the loosest on the market from the factory. They do go through a break in period during the first 500 mi. that may result in it stalling a few times. No one has been able to truly determine why but it happens. Mine did several times and after that it has never done it again. Mine is a SE5 not sure if that has something to do with it either. As I said it has been random.

It's pretty normal for odd hesitations, shuddering and lurching at very low speeds during the first 2-3k miles. The transmissions take a while to smooth out and some never do.
Again, I wish it weren't so... but it is normal and common for these machines. Doesn't hurt anything unless it's extreme.
I have a 2013 ST. It will stall when hot if the revs get too low. If I keep it running at above 1300 RPM it seems to be OK.

I have a 2014 sts I bought used with 650 miles. It now has 750 Mikes and has stalled 5 times. 30 seconds after stopping sometimes it stalls bit will start back up. Quite dangerous!! Hope it works itself out.

Is it possible that the idle speed is set too low??? My Spyder ('13 STS SE5) has never stalled, mine idles at 1300 RPM. I hope you all resolve the problem!

Ours did that when it was brand new. It was a one year left over so it sat around a while. The dealer replaced the battery and its been fine ever since.

Mine stalled once in the first 1.5 miles city stop and go traffic. Dealer had cautioned me that it might stall at idle and stopped during break-in. It did just the one time and a couple of other instances it felt like it was going to stall at Stop light, so slipped into Neutral and feathered the throttle a little for a few seconds. Fore warned is fore armed thanks to a sharing dealer, he showed me a TSB or notice from BRP and I was grateful for that. The fuel mapping is pretty lean so with a tight engine occasional stalling is to be expected. just ride it and it will cure itself!

2015 ST L SE5 stalled
I have a 2015 ST L SE5. Always use premium fuel.
It has 2500 kms on it. Stalled the first time today in first gear.
(I filled up before going home and had 30 kms on that tank)
Thought I pushed the kill switch as it just died. No.
Pulled over, couldn't get it out of 1st gear.
I had power as the screen was showing and radio worked.
Just wouldn't start. I rocked it trying to get it to go into gear. Didn't work.
After 5 - 10 minutes I managed to get it into N and start it.
Drove a few blocks. Shut off. Started again and went home a block.
This is the first time it died like that. Now I'm afraid it will do it on the highway.
Temp today was about 26 C. So not overly hot.

You can start it in 1st gear if your foot is on the brake. Check your battery connections. They will work loose if a star washer isn't on them. When all else fails pull the key out and wait 10 - 15 minutes.
