developed a weird idle

Maybe it's just me, but I think my rl has developed an awkward ide. It sounds like a slight miss, but nothing serious, such as a dead miss. I thought it may be the plugs since it's been a while. I changed them and it still seems to be there. Also it's been really hot and the humidity is high. I'm curious if
that matters with a tune. Also could a fuel filter deliver a weird idle as well?

I just listened to some sound clips, and it seems they have the sound as well, maybe I'm just paranoid. After installing a tq dampener, I've been paranoid of all it's noises. seems I always find a new one.

Before diagnosing any other issues, make sure to clean out the throttle body with TB cleaner. Mine idles like crap and throws codes if it's dirty.

My car sounds like a truck and/or a bullpup depending on who you ask. But LLRL (that'd be ladies love the rl)...in my dreams.

I have to say...the faux 2.4 redline in storm grey looks pretty good but it's still lame.
