One possible cause could be a dirty or malfunctioning throttle body. I would recommend getting that checked and cleaned.

L

Another possibility is a faulty idle air control valve. This can cause the engine to stall when idle. It's important to get it checked and replaced if necessary.

G

Check your fuel filter as well. If it's clogged or dirty, it could be restricting the flow of fuel to the engine, causing it to stall.

C

I had a similar issue with my Sportage and it turned out to be a faulty mass airflow sensor. Get that checked and replaced if needed.

Make sure your spark plugs are in good condition. Worn out spark plugs can cause stalling as well.
