How do I prevent my Kia Rio from stalling at stoplights?

I have a Kia Rio and every time I come to a stoplight, the car stalls and I have to restart it. It's really annoying and I'm not sure what's causing it. Can anyone give me some advice on how to prevent this from happening?

Hi Jane, I used to have the same issue with my Kia Rio. After doing some research, I found out that it could be due to a dirty throttle body. You can try cleaning it with some throttle body cleaner and see if that helps.

Hey Jane, another potential cause for stalling at stoplights could be a faulty idle air control valve. It's worth getting it checked out by a mechanic to see if that's the issue.

Hi Jane, I had a similar problem with my Kia Rio and it turned out to be a faulty fuel pump. It's a common issue with this model so it's worth getting it checked out.
