Rough idle after recall

So i left my GT86 at the Toyota dealership for the recall (valve springs) and when i retrieved the car the idle was crazy low and jumping all over the place and stalling out, so the next day i went back.

After a couple of days they told me the spark plugs were bad causing misfires, but the car was running fine before the recall. Since they wanted 900$ for replacing the plugs (mind you this was the price when they did the recall). I took the car back.

The spark plugs were changed and i got the old ones back, they looked fine... (did they even look at the plugs?) the problem with the idle was still there so i went back again to the dealership.

After 2 weeks in the shop they called me up telling me that the spark plugs were wrong, but that was not the case. The ones installed were the replacement for the discontinued ones, which i point out. A bit awkward silence..

A week later they call me and says that one cylinder has bad compression and misfires, they sent the data to their service center and were awaiting an answer.

Anyone have a clue what is going on here?
