In idle (neutral) the engine cuts off; we have checked the maf sensors, throttle position sensor, IAC motor with no apparent problems. Any suggestions on what else to check?

Hi minimom3,

Check for a faulty speed sensor, it cancause idling cutting off after some driving. A scan might show the code.
