my experience is that when the iac goes south, you get a cel code. why? because the iac is a little motor, that thing either works or not. but when the engine is cold, it works on open loop mode (ignores a few sensors). what year is your car? check your intake air temp sensor, egr, coolant temp sensor.... do you have a cel code?
