2004 Buick start stall problems by jeffsbuick

Hi I have a 2004 Buick Rendezvous, I have to hold gas pedal partway down to start hot or cold engine most of the time it stalls, but if I keep the RPM's up and start driving it run's great, but sometimes slowing down for a stop it stalls. It has been to dealer about 6 times they replaced fuel injectors twice, removed and cleaned gas tank, did throttle body flush etc. I'm out of warranty about 106,000 miles been a problem for about 3 years. Also speedometer recently started reading 50 mph over actual speed, can reset by turning ignition on and off about 20 times.
Please help Thankyou Jeff

I have a similar problem. When it is hot outside and the car has been running if I shut it off it wont start. Did you find a remedy for your problem?

I had a similar problem. I took oof my groung wire and cleaned the terminals with a wire brush and it started for a year or so. Then had to repeat the process. You could also try wiggling the battery terminals.

have encountered the same problem with grounds on AC and heater fan motors, good to keep them clean also.
  
Also because of electrical requirements of todays cars, the battery has to be at its peak.
  
 When the engine seems to turn over slow check the battery - Walmart will do it for free
  
Can u tell me what ground u cleaned on your buick? location etc.
  
Ok thanks

I finally found out what was the problem. It was my fuel pressure regulator. The part sells for about 45$ if you shop around and labor is about an hour.
