Sounds like mine, E. I don't think you have an issue. I'll double check mine's behavior in a bit but that does sound right.

Yeah I'm not sure if that's where it's supposed to be at but that's around the area mine stays at. Maybe someone who knows a definite answer will chime in. I'm just saying that's where mine stays at.

Is your car vibrating or anything?

It sounds like it wants to stall out when coming to a stop but doesn't. Just a slight choking sound

The O2 sensors maybe? My car does idle like yours. Every once in a blue moon it will feel like it is going to stall, but it never does and the feeling is very rare.

Yeah mine does dip down in that area where it feels like stalling. It doesn't happen too much but your right it does feel rare.
