Hello fellas, its been a while.
To the point, I have an 06 GT, stock, 107k. I bought it in January with 96k, Manual.
I have gotten to the point where I can replicate the issue almost at will. The engine will begin to run TERRIBLY, almost as if half the cylinders dropped. No codes, not once between 96k to 107k. I can get the engine to run and idle just fine again by revving it up.
It only happens upon coming to a stop from a long run, say, my 30 miles and then off the exit each way to home or work. Or, pulling into places slowly like say, parking lots, driveway inclines, etc. The RPM would drop to barely sustaining idle and and shake and knock like crazy. If I hit the gas it will putter and knock until say 2k-2500 RPM then it revs up normally, so I let the gas go and it runs fine again.
I have replaced, Fuel filter, Spark plugs, Coils, and lastly yesterday, Fuel injectors. All with OEM stuff. I have yet to attempt to modify or race the vehicle since I got it because although it runs great most of the time, I don't want to risk it.
It has never stalled or thrown a code, not once. I had some missing power and lag but switching the injectors solved that instantly, so that was its own separate issue.
Again, if I am in 1st gear and slowly revving and slipping the clutch as you would to enter somewhere slowly, that is when almost ALWAYS it happens. Not sure what else to check? VCT solenoids? Chain Tensioners? Timing chain itself? I say these because when its idling all crazy for those few seconds it sounds almost as if the chain were super loose and rattling but cant be sure.
