Car rev's while in parK....

Just started my car up and after about 2 minutes it started reving from 2000 rpm's back down to 1000, then back and fourth, back and fourth, what could this be?? This came out of no where. Thanks in advance...

Most likely Idle Air Control Valve. Located under the TB. You can remove and clean it with some carb cleaner.

Thanks guys, familiar with the name but not the location, can you give me a detailed pic of what I should take out and clean, funny because this morning it stopped revving by itself so the IAC probably is clogged...Thanks

Your problem is your IACV (Idle Air Control Valve) is getting dirty. Its located on the bottom of the Throttle Body. (there is a few pics of it in the DIY thread) Take it off and clean it.
