Starts great, every time. Idles in Park fine. Shift into Drive and it stalls.
To get home I had to keep the engine at 1500rpm while breaking with my other foot at stoplights.

That's a tough one. You don't mention getting a CEL so I'm guessing it could be any number of things: Idle Control Valve, Fuel Pressure Regulator, Shift Sensor ... or any combination thereof.
How about putting in some gas treatment with fuel injector cleaner as a start & see if the problem goes away.
Mine did the same thing a couple years ago. I replaced the Idle Control Valve ($58 and maybe 10 minutes).. Took care of the problem. Good luck
That fixed a similar problem on my 928 (although in that car, you have to remove the entire intake plenum, fuel rails, etc, to get to it, and the part cost $400!)Quote:

I took mine out, cleaned the hell out of it with sensor-safe cleaning spray, then reinstalled it. It's been working like a champ every since!
Try simply disconnecting the battery for 30 minutes, to do a hard-reset on the engine computer.
