Default Is it normal if my car idle at 900 rpm?

From my previous car, I know that car idle at around 750 rpm when it's warmed up, instead it idles at 900 rpm. When I start the engine from cold, it does not idle constantly at 1200/1300 rpm, it only idle at 1000 rpm and it tries to go down to 900 rpm, but whenever it reacher 900 rpm, small vibration started and it rises to 1000 rpm again. Anyone know whether this is normal??

Mine does the same. Seems to be regular. I had my throttle body assembly disassembled and cleaned for 50 bucks which made it idle a lot cleaner. The dealership wanted to replace the part (50000 MILES) screw that just clean it, very little moving parts that would need replacing. Still idles about 900, doesnt bounce too much maybe just up to 1100 once or twice and then settles. Make sure your not throwing any codes. Good luck and happy driving.
