It's either just a low idle setting on the throttle body or a vacuum issue. Try raising the idle setting first; if it starts throbbing, it's a vacuum issue.

The idle screw is located on the throttle body.. You can't miss it.. Big flat head screw..

I sent you a PM with a good link...

But if that dosent work clean your IAVC located behind your air intake manifold has 2 small hoses connected to. Easy to clean too just unbolt it and spray it with simple clean than adjust the screw they are talking about until your car Idles between 700~600 rpm correct me if im wron! GL

Edit:Oh! and reset your ecu after this and have the stereo code in hand!

Good catch OoAreyuloO, yeah any time you adjust something it's a good idea to unplug your battery for about 5 minutes then run your engine until the fan turns on to erase the bad memories.

If you're still having problems after that, just check & make sure you're not leaking air from any old vacuum hoses around the intake.

Check and clean the IACV and/or FITV. IACV is located behind the intake manifold I believe. And FITV under the throttle body, iirc. Good luck, cause they are both a PITA to work with. Best if you have small hand and flexible.
