I was driving down the highway and when i was coming to a stop i pushed the clutch in and the car stalls. I immediately started the car again but there was a very loud squeal. Now when i push in the clutch at idle the rpms drop and the car wants to stall. When im moving the car is actually normal.

By previous Evo versions do you mean Evo 1 - 6 or are you talking about the 4G63 in the Talon and Eclipses.?
You can't crankwalk a pull type clutch car.
The Carbonetics converts to push, however there is no way it has walked.

i have an evo 9 with an excedy twin and mine does the exact same thing!!it intermittedly does stall as i push the clutch in going to a stop once in a while. the car starts right back up but its like the idle needle drops too low and the car stalls. battery and everything check out. bump for some answers!

When the clutch is engaged does it have trouble releasing? that is what the common sign of it is. It says the clutch will just stay to the floor if the crank is walking. But that is just a quick google search.
" Crankwalk is the VTEC of the DSM world. Not too many have it, but everyone says they've got it!"
I also found this quote lol and found that a mazda miata can get it frequently too.

it sounds like a disk is sticking and not disingageing, maybe overheated from slipping too much. i wouldn't say crankwalk cause if it is possible in these cars(not saying it isn't cause anything is) its very hard to do and with the design of the bearings i would think it would make alot more problems. maybe alot of knocking.

Yeah i agree with you^^^ it would probably make noise and a lot of it. I mean we have a tick that is for damn sure but not a loud knock.
I actually just remembered a 240 having this issue. The flywheel was mated to the clutch because of a bad install.

This exact same senerio happened to me with my Quarter Master Twin you have to adjust a part of the tune which i believe is the idle map control or something like that maybe a tunner can chime you basically have to adjust it to get it to stop stalling when the clutch is disengaged when coming to a stop there was a thread about it on here i'll try and post a link if I can find it.
