when i'm in "D" and idling, engine sounds like it wants to stall out

hey guys,

my car just decided to do this today, when i'm at an idle the rpm will feel like it's surging and the car shakes a bit. The rpm will drop a bit then come back up. It almost feels like the engine is going to stall out. I think it's the idle air control valve but i've looked around and you guys said that there's no such thing in this car?

I have a 2005. Here's a video to clarify what's happening. Turn the sound up to hear the surging noise as well.

Thank you so much

Have you tried cleaning your MAF and Throttle Body?

i changed out my regular air filter to a cold air intake so i don't even know if i have the MAF...however, i'll be cleaning the throttle body tomorrow so we'll see how that goes.

also did some reason and i've learnt it could also be a vacuum leak but i have not been able to find any DIY to fix it....any references?
