Sounds like the IAC. If your engine idles too low, the IAC opens up, and tries to set the rpm at 700-800 rpm.

I had a similar problem, and turned out the IAC was choke full of dirt. Worked great after I flushed it out with carb cleaner. Just make sure you idle it right after resetting ECU.

Check your idle fuel pressure too... If you're running too much fuel at idle it'll do that too. By too rich, I mean WAY too rich... Normally you could tell by how sluggy the car feels.

check your fmu, make sure that it is functioning properly. Check for vaccum leaks in hoses.
