big idle issue

Hi guys!

long time no post but i could do with another set of eyes on my issue i currently having

I was driving home recently, and pulled unto a roundabout and cut out, i thought it was fuelling related as it was on a slight incline and i was VVVVVVery low on petrol

got her started again, after a lot of turning over and praying, car cut out a 2 or 3 more times again before i arrived at the petrol station

fuel in, now the car cannot maintain an idle

thought it was the pump, swapped that out, no change,
swapped in a new maf, no change
plugs seem fine

car drives SPOT on when on boost, it just cannot maintain an idle when warm, it can from cold when the revs are higher, but below 1k rpm it hunts a couple times and then dies, someone on my forum mentioned it might just be a coincidence that you were low on fuel and the problem was there anyway

heres a short vid and sorry in advance about the screech from the defis
