Ok im getting really frustrated at this point and need some major help. I have a 2000 infiniti i30 with roughly 161k and i cant figure out this idle problem for the life of me. Well let me give you a description of what's happening.upon starting in the morning the rpm drops do low the car stalls out unless i hold my foot on the gas to keep it idle. Once it gets warm the rpm jumps out of control and has a horrible shake. My check engine light is on showing p0172 p0174 and p0300 codes i just replaced the spark plugs and all 6 coil packs yesterday. Pleade help. Not all that car savvy but know how to work on them a bit. Should i replace the iacv the maf the throttle control valve. All suggestions are welcomed. Thanks nico Family

Welcome aboard. :)

Start the car and disconnect the MAF plug. If it smooths out, there's your issue.
