I have something similar to what your talking about though. About 1 out of 20 times when coming to a complete stop at a traffic light, it would do it. RPM would drop like it would stall out, car shakes a little, but it would correct itself. I've read about it a bit and cleaning the throttle body is supposed to fix it. There is a Tech Bulletin out on this. I've cleaned the driver's side one, (just too lazy to do the other side for now) and it didn't seem all that dirty to me. I might clean the other side today.
What I do have when going into reverse (or into drive from reverse, or just letting off the gas) is a "clink" sound. Can't hear it with windows up, but for sure can hear it with it down and having something near by to bounce the sound back to you. There is a Tech Bulletin for this also. Supposedly the axle nut has worked its way loose and needs to be re-torqued. A cotter pin is keeping it from coming all the way loose.

Thanks for the response, I am not really worried. Will worry though if it stalls.
Only occured twice, just a little shakey for a second or two. I am not that familiar with Auto boxes hence the question, I do know however that they are not supposed to stall
