New to this forum! 2008 Lancer GTS ideling problem? HELP!

Hi I have a 2008 Lancer Gts I’ve owned it for about a year now. Probably after owning it for 3 months I was backed up into while pumping gas by a Honda Pilot ( Nothing mayor just a cracked bumper). Long story short after waiting for 2 months for it back from the body shop they gave it to me with a rough idle it’ll rev up to 2000 RPMS then idle down to 0 and it will die out on me (my car is 5speed manual). When I have it on any hear it won’t idle down it works fine the only issue is when I put it on neutral or I reach a stop light. Auto shop said they weren’t responsible for it even though I gave them a perfect working car it’s been 7 months now and I still have that problem I’ve only replaced both o2 sensors and I still have that idleing issue. I’m open to any ideas suggestions on how to get her running like before.

I got the 08 gts too. I have been having the same problem with it. I bet it says you are running lean too. But what I have started doing is every other week I take the mass air flow out and clean it. It runs great for a bit then comes back. Haven't got the dying down yet but I am still trying. Not sure if this helps but worth a shot for ya.
