I just gotten my car back from the mechanic. The car was smashed into a light pole, I have spent 4 grands on it so it can be back on it's 4 wheels, the car wasnt damage bad.
This problem arised right after i got back the car, the mechanic said the O2 sensor is bad and was alittle bent, the check engine light is on as well. The car revs to 1500RPM and drops back down to around 900RPM constantly. just up and down. Will this problem be fixed if i change the O2 sensor?

 

maybe its the IACV?

 

I went to auto zone and did the OBDII read.
the code came out as P0505
and they printed out a order list for me stating it's the
IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE.
Your right it's the IVAC then
the engine feels like it's falling apart the car feels so diffrent from before...

what should i do?
