DAMN! 7-8 in 6 months? Thats expensive.

Anyhow, how do you know they are going bad? Maybe something else is the problem?
It throws a cel 14 right?

Are you overdriving it with an EMS setup?

usually it wont throw a cel..... the car just shuts off everytime i stop.... as soon as i replace it, everything goes back to normal....

not too sure if the tuner did anything with the EMS

I meant like the AEM EMS... You can put in parameters for the IAC and some people have overdriven it causing it to fail.. If you are running the stock ECU then forget about my comment
