2004 Grand Prix reving on start up

My 2004 Grand Prix has recently been reving up when I turn it on. This did it about 8mos ago, took it into the shop and they couldn't find anything wrong with it, they thought it could be some sensors so they replaced them. It seemed to have fix the problem until this week and it's doing it again. If I turn it off and back on sometimes that fixes it and it idles back to normal, other times I have to drive, turn it off and then back on and it will idle fine. It doesn't rev up when I'm driving, only occasionally when I start it. Any ideas what could be causing this? I don't want to take it in since this shop didn't know what could be causing it and to replace those sensors was expensive? Any thoughts would be appreciated before I bring it in. Thank you, Maxie.
 


have you cleaned the throttle body yet? they get gummed up and stick some.

or, i have read a few posts where the engine revved up to 2,000 rpm's at start up, and it turned out to be a bad fuel pressure regulator.
