That's the easiest and cheapest place to start first. Also, clean out your throttle body/intake system.

Re: Surging Idle

get some Carb Cleaner and spray around the engine and see if the idle stops or drops.

Re: Surging Idle

well you replaced the iacv so did you make sure there is no air in the coolant system?

This is most likely the problem. Do a search for fitv. You will need to open the backside up and screw the plastic piece on the inside back down. If located in va beach area and want someone to fix it for you, pm me.
