One problem related to engine stall has been reported for the 2008 BMW M3. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Throttle actuator problem: is caused by an engineering defect in the actuator gears which deteriorate under 60,000 miles and cause the engine to go to "limp" mode. Once in limp mode the engine may stall and won't accelerate as normal; which was my case when it occurred on the highway causing a great danger to myself and society.
