Idle problem
When im in N and at a light or just running the engine it idles really strange. It goes below 1rpm and starts to shake a little then it spikes up to 1 1/2 rpms and then it kind of repeats.
Any ideas or suggestions?

Ive had this forever as well on my 09 i believe there was a recall on the 08 spark plugs. I cleaned my throttle body and it did nothing. I believe it could be my plugs but i have not gotten around to changing them yet.

I changed my plugs about 6 months ago and it seemed to stop for a little while, but now its back and getting worst. I'm thinking about doing the plugs and wires this weekend.

I have brand new plugs and wires. In fact, i have a brand new engine. I recently hydro locked it. Did it a little with the old engine. Does it a lot with the new.

Mine only seems to do it on really hot days no matter if ac is on or not . I scaned for codes and nothing usually if i just rev it up a few hundred rpm it will come back to normal idle almost like a stickin iac motor or tps mayb but no codes so i just let it go.
