Engine Stop sound effects for the moment the key turns back. Cars, vans, tractors, golf carts, little RC cars and even a jump jet, all winding down to nothing. Some cut dead. Others shudder and cough before they settle. It's the sound that ends a chase, parks the getaway car or tells you the old tractor has finally given up.

An engine stop is easy to overlook and hard to fake. A modern car just cuts out. An old diesel shakes the whole body on the way down, and a tired petrol engine can cough and run on for a moment after the key is off. Vehicle libraries usually record the full cycle, so the stop comes with a matching Engine Start and Engine Idle from the same mics. That's the useful bit. Cut between them and the car stays the same car. Inside the cabin the stop sounds smaller and closer, while from outside it's more about the exhaust dying away. Jets take their time to spool down, a lovely long tail if the scene has room for it.
