2000 Ford Taurus 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic 67000 km

Car runs poor at idle sometimes. Seems to go away after I drive it a while and when engine is warm and the last two days the car has been fine with the temperature outside around 0'C. The engine light was on and pulled code P1504, P0402. I changed the DPFE valve and code P0402 is now gone but P1504 is still present. It seems like the cars IAC valve was changed before I got the car 15000 km ago. Is it a bad IAC, MAF dirty or a vacuum leak? Any advice is apreciated.

Thanks
