Stalling in traffic. Pull over or drop in neutral while moving, flip ignition off then restart. Took it to the dealer and they changed the rotor, cap & ignition wires two years ago this past fall. Problem has not occurred since (in probably12k miles).

A little o/t, but what are symptoms of a failing cat converter on a W124. Just curious. Stalling? No pickup? low speed?
