vacuum leak could be causing the ideling problem. my car usedto do it and it ended up being that it just needed a new throttle body gasket

possibly your thermostat...I was having the same problem, where the gauge only sits at C and blows minimal heat, warms up a little when Idling, then needle goes back down when I start driving.

I change my thermostat, and problem fixed...Change your rad fluid at the same time, if you're changing thermostat
