G dies in neutral while coasting????

It's happened about 5 times since I have owned the car which is one week. Mainly on the highway on an exit ramp when I am coasting. But always in neutral it seems. I'm getting a full check on Monday. Has anyone else struggled this one?

You've never coasted in nuetral? So yore telling me the only time you put it in neutral is a stop. you shouldn't even have to put on neutral then. I do downshift frequently. But there is a point we all coast in neutral. And that's when my car has died!

Im thinking dirty throttle body. I drove my car for 90k miles and never cleaned mav sensor before, but cleaned throttle body twice. Is your RPM dropping on start up?, if so, you need to clean throttle body. Good luck.
