To clarify you took it to a garage for a cambelt and waterpump replacement and the idle speed was OK but when you got it back the idle was 3K?

First thing I would do is take it back and ask them to sort it free of charge.

Worth making sure the coolant temperature sensor is operating correctly. If it is in an airlock the engine will keep the idle speed high.

You do need to let the idle speed slowly adjust on the IS200. Drive the vehicle and at every junction come to a complete stop and let it rest for 20 seconds in neutral and repeat (many times) - the idle speed should slowly come down.
