Check fan belt.

Does it happen when you have the air con on?

If so, it was a known issue that could be dialed out by the factory. Mine used to stall.

I see a flicker when the fans cut in sometimes but not 3-4 secs worth and not every time I stop.

You can put a temporary fix on it by winding the throttle stop open a bit.
It'll probably be a plug in and fiddle with the laptop job mate

I am with Obes on that one, I just never bothered as mine went a few weeks before service.
