Default The SRT TC is the culprit

Well some of you might know that my car has been in the shop for some time now because of a stutter problem that know one can figure out. Well if you didn't know then, here is a quickie. My car started to stutter at idle about 2 months ago and then dies sometimes when put into park after driving. The engine ran great when first start but the stutter only starts after I start driving the car. I have taken the car to 4 mechanics and even Lexus and know one knew what was wrong!
Well I have finally gave up and decided to sell the car this weekend and wanted to keep the SRT TC I have, so I took it out and put the old one back in.
Guess what, the problem stopped!
The car has been running great for four days now!
I guess the SRT TC malfunctioned somewhere.
Now since I had the TC for over a year now, no warranty.
Mo can you doing anything for me?
