    sorry it could be absolutley anything,

    start cleaning the throttle housing and idle controler with some carb cleaner, then check it hasn't missed a spark plug change, following that get someone by getting one to put a code reader on it and check the engine ecu for fault codes

    throttle body and the inlet manifold where it goes. There are some small secondary vacum holes these become clogged. Check these and all breather pipes. You will find some of them will be hard with gunge! very common prob.
