RED Light Stalls.

Hey guys I have 2007 328i, This car stalls at almost any red light when I break quick. I 've researched and I was told a few thing, its was my valve cover leaking oil to my FI, so i've fix that, clean it out an put in new Fuel injectors and coils, problem still happen, so then i was told it would be the MAF & dirty Throttle. So I replaced the MAF clean the sensor and sprayed and wiped the throttle. Since during that yesterday evening my wife told me car didn't stop at the red light told.

Which im think that simple lil fix can't be it Im expecting it to happen again on her 20 mile trip from work this evening. So what could this be. Also to note i got codes BMW P0344 P0340 and my VANOS need replacing I think cause when I had the valve cover leak I have a bunch of oil build up in that area nasty gunk. Should I just use some de greaser or brake cleaner and high pressure water to clean it or what to use and then replace them?

You can clean them but they most likely will fail again so I suggest a change. Find out which is it first if it's exhaust or intake solenoids.

I just recently replaced both my solenoids... If you've got high miles, a few extra dollars, and about 20 minutes to spare... I'd just go ahead and replace both. I got two for $112 each on eBay (HERE). I double checked and they will work for your model
