My 2013 hyundai started losing power when I was driving around 120 on the highway, and now it stalls every time I come to a stop, it drives fine when I’m moving but the moment I stop it starts losing power and then just turns off, I’ve had a mech check the fuel pump, spark plugs and the whole engine but can’t find the problem

120 MPH? I guess I don't have to tell you you're an idiot and lucky to didn't kill somebody.

There are all kinds of things that could have happened to the engine but I'm guessing you loosened up some carbon which got caught in the EGR valve. Remove the valve and see if anything is caught in the pintle.

Thanks for the advice.
But the speed limit on the highway was 110 so 10 above the speed limit isn’t bad
But thanks tho

So, I guess you are talking kilometers and not MPH. I'm in the US and there's nothing over 80 but I see you are in Canada.

lol 120 😆...i went to Canda on a motorcycle and rode around for a summer back in the 80's. It was August and as soon as the sun went down it got chilly. The speed limits on the signs took getting use to as getting gas where ur gallon is 5 quarts. went to Quebec. at that time it was against the law during the workday to speak anything but French lol. So funny going to a McDonalds and seeing Ronald McDonalds speech bubble all in French.
probably something like the pintle on ur IAC needs cleaning or a leak in your vacuum lines / emission lines. could be a clogged exhaust pipe/ cat too. take out ur first downstrean ox sensor and drive the car see if it still stalls...if it does not u know its the exhaust system clogged someplace.
