90% of idle problems are IVC related. check the hoses leading to and from it arent split and that theyr properly connected. Clean the IVC with carb cleaner, not wd40 its goa b card cleaner to keep it lubricated. let it soak for a while too
failing this i changed my air flow meter and it instantly solved the problem after a 3 minute drive
other than this, try temperature sender or ssplit hoses below or aroun the inlet manifold, or the air boot his cracks too
like i said tho, ICV is your main suspect dude
let us no
