My Peugeot 406 keeps stalling when in a low gear i have a automatic. Other times my idle speed is erractic. Can anyone please give us a solution to sort this out.

hi there

clean out you idle control valve and throttle body.
do not forget to synchronize it after you replace the control valve you do this by turning the ignition on for about 10 seconds 3 times (do not start the engine) until you repeat this procedure after which take the car for a 20 minute drive then all should be well. USE CARB CLEANER TO CLEAN THESE PARTS WITH.
