Probably the IAC valve, but cleaning the throttle body is basic maintenance as well. If you pull off the air horn at the throttle body, look and see if the throttle plate and bore are full of gunk. They usually are, and you can take a clean rag and some brake clean or carb clean and wipe it down until it looks new. That solves all kinds of idling problems, and I'd always give it a try before replacing parts or paying for diagnostics.
