Pretty much gaurenteed it's your FIT valve under your throttlebody. Take the cover off with the 2 screws and remove the valve. Be careful it's spring loaded. Clean it and then tighten it until your idle is correct. The fit valve controls your idle when the engine Is cold. Had the same problem. This should take no more than 30 min and fix your problem.
