could be your egr valve all crapped up as it causes many idling problems
 
bad idle is caused by a couple of things, including IAT sensor, EGR valve, vacuum leaks, bad plugs, dirty TB etc. check everything
 
Checks for loose couplers/pipes and vacuum leaks, as they are the most common causes for such symptoms. What code is the car throwing? Do you have a boost guage? If so what is the vacuum reading at idle?
 
ya i got it read and it said some thing about the maf so i checked it and the honey comb fell into the way of the sensor so it was reading all funny
