When the car is in drive and stopped and idling, the RPMs drop to about 500, so low that there is a noticeable bumping. If you put the car in park, the idle returns to normal. This used to happen very occasionally and would go away, now it is very frequent, but still comes and goes.

Try cleaning out the idle air control valve and the MAF sensor with an approved cleaner and see what happens
