It recovered on its own after a surge, maybe looking for a happy spot, and then settled in at around 700-750rpm I think. I haven't experienced that issue since. Do you think they could be related? Maybe your car just never fully adapted?
The symptom you're describing was what was happening with my car but constantly. As soon as the car moves and then comes to a stop, I get this idle bounce until it finally settles down to a smooth idle. Imagine having to deal with this idle stall/surge while going through DC Metro traffic with the surge causing the car to jump/lurch forward.

If your car is functioning fine since that idle issue, I would just leave it alone. In my situation, I had to do something because you can barely drive my car in the condition it was in.
