Next time someone diagnosis your vehicle get SOMETHING in writing with what you need. Even scribbled on a napkin is better then nothing. Also the DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) read from your vehicle is always SUPER useful.

TPS = Throttle Position Sensor which is mounted on the Throttle Body. And I am not sure what the other is since, as far as I know, your car does not have a idle sensor. I'm sure someone with more knowledge them me will chime in and offer some more information.
