I just replaced the idle control valve (new $118) from Sobstory.com. My idle does not dither anymore when engine at running temp. Job takes less than 5 minutes. Also sounds like you may need a cold start valve ( about $30). Of course, it could always be the dreaded air mass meter - but I would need to know how the "cutting out" at speed feels. Is it only when you acceler8 hard? If so, just replace turbo bypass valve, a common failure after 100K miles Mike
