2007 avalon
3.5 motor
XLS model
65000 miles
I have a 2007 toyota avalon with about 65000 miles my check engine light recently came on and went off the next day. after about 30 min of driving the light came back on and when ever i was forced to break due to a red light or slow traffic it would act like it want to cut off. once i parked the car and turned it off it would start back up..can you help before i take it to the dealership and get robbed?

The "check engine" light is an indicator for a system that monitors many electronic functions in the system, also called the "malfunction indicator lamp" (MIL). It can come on for any of hundreds of different causes from any of the systems that the computer monitors. Some are very important and can lead to further component or engine damage and some are emissions related not as serious but still a problem and need to be repaired.
Your first step is to have the computer scanned to retrieve the trouble codes that were set when the check engine light came on. Those codes will give you specific information about what the computer saw and will get you pointed in the right direction to find your problem. With a 1996 or newer and some 95 cars and you have an AutoZone or Advanced auto parts in your area, they will read them for free. Once you have these code numbers, we can be a lot more specific about what your problem may be.
