05 V6 Idle Issues
So my car has been doing this for a while but really hasn't affected me at all so I never thought it was an issue (and it may not be) but sometimes when I put my car into neutral (it's a stick shift btw) the idle will go up to 2k RPM then back down then back up again and repeat. If I put the clutch in while it's doing this it will drop back down to normal idle around 1k (little less). Any idea on what is causing this random idle problem? Like I said it's not every time I drive.

Well it's been doing this since I got the car back in 2009 and I just shrugged it off. About a month ago I was having issues with my car going into limp mode and I had the throttle body cleaned but didn't do anything and I replaced my throttle position sensor which stopped that issue. Mass air flow sensor I haven't touched though

It's a b**** when it does and is this a fairly common issue? I asked my dad and he said it's normal but I don't know...

Yeah like I said it isn't bothering me all that much, I was just making sure my car isn't about to blow up or something stupid lol

Do you have any mods? If you had "someone" clean the TB, then I recommend you do it yourself. It's very easy and at least you'll know it was done properly. Many idle issues are related to a dirty TB. And the MAF is a simple matter of spraying. I prefer to not scrub the MAF like some folks recommend on other forums.
