that idle problem is either a vacuum leak or misadjusted TPS. You probably have air in the coolant system, u should change the radiator caps (use oem ones). Does that idle get better once the car warms up?

first thing to check is the throttle position sensor, they are very troublesome
the air in the coolant can be fixed on a cold car, you squeeze the upper radiator hose until no more air comes out. make sure you have the heater on
