I have a most interesting problem.

After a while of driving, I noticed that when I shifted, the throttle would fall at all. When I am to a stop light, the rpm's stayed and even started climbing. I pulled up on the pedal quick and it still climbed to about ~4000 rpm.

If I put the car into neutral, the rpm's would fall.

If I shift into a higher gear the rpm's would fall the match speed appropriately.

What is going on? Its there some sort of weird idling problem going on?

If that doesn't work, you should try and, clean the throtle body.

You shouldn't need to take it out though. In the shop we have a throttle body cleaning device, but before we got that we would use some good carb cleaner and a tooth brush to clean the butterfly plate, and all of the little holes. then wipe it clean with a shop/rag.

Just an idea, with out looking at the problem we can only guess with you.

Good luck
