Possiable 6 speed problem?

I posted this a little in another thread. Since I picked my 6 speed up, I noticed a vibration when idle in N. Feels like a miss, & felt like the car wanted to stall. Felt it in the seat, & steering wheel. Didn't matter if the AC was on , or off. I let it go, cause the car was new. Now I have 1100 miles, & that vibration is worse. Yesterday, I reved it at a light, & the car almost did stall. RPM's went down below 500 & then came back. The car idle's at just below 1K RPM's all the time. I plan to take it in at some point this week. Any other 6 speed owners have this? Are there any TSB's on the 6 speed? The car drives fine otherwise, It dyno'd fine also, so whatever it is, it doesn't seem to be impacting performance.

There's a similar thread a week or two back with the same info, but...yeah, same thing on my 6-spd. It actually did stall once on me when I revved it, and a couple of other times it almost stalled. I have ~2200 miles now, and I don't seem to be noticing it near as often as I did. Perhaps it is working itself out? I'll keep an eye on it though.

There were a couple threads on this last week. I sent one out to see if anyone else felt this rough idling on their 6-speed. The link is:

I just dropped off my car this morning and asked the service advisor to check on it (along with checking out my paint). I'll post back in my thread when I hear if there is any problem.

My rpm's don't drop down past 600 or so and I don't think it's gonna stall, but it just sits there a bit rough. Perhaps I'm just anal and it is like that...I dunno.

I had my water pump and timing belt inspected and my car is okay. My serial number was also on the TSB recall notice, but I guess the parts in my car were okay though.

I never got any recall stuff. Only had the car 3 weeks or so. I checked the recall database, & I only see the timing belt.
