Had the same erratic idle problem. Mechanic cleaned out carbon build up inside throttle body and problem fixed; runs like a clock now.

Don't know much about the car you have, but I have had cars throughout the years that had similar problems you have but on different cars/SUVs. One car I had that had similar problems to yours was a crank positioning sensor that was bad. That was a GMC SUV. Another car I had that had similar problems to yours was a Honda that had a bad distributor with some bad electronic modules in the distributor cap (two problems). Also I had a Nissan car that had problems in the intake back to the air cleaner. As I remember it was the mass air flow sensor and the throttle body was either damaged or gummed up with debris and old gas.
