Dropped the car off at the dealer this afternoon. Also mentioned to them the lurching feel when at a stop sometimes with the brakes which people have had numerous threads about on the forums. Showed him the video of the weird idle. They are keeping the car overnight to see if it does the same for them in the morning. But also he pulled on the computer that my car has a recall with the computer system and that they would do an entire computer reprogramming/update of the cars who system. He was saying the weird idle may be a faulty temperature reading and too much fuel going to the engine due to it thinking its a temperature that is incorrect. So I'm happy and look forward to seeing how it comes out. The guy told me that the updating of the entire computer system can take up to half a day so I am interested to see if everything works out fine come tomorrow when I pick it up.
