Why does my idle go up and down while in park?
The idle is controlled by the idle air control valve and if it cannot keep the engine idling it will keep trying to rev the engine up to compensate. A vacuum leak, sensor that has failed, or an EGR system malfunction could potentially be the cause of the erratic engine you’re experiencing.

What are the idle RPMs of a VX?
As I approach a stop and coast while in gear, I put it in neutral around 1200 to 1500 rpm, it settles to 1k or so and I get a surge of about 200 rpm as I roll to a stop, once at a complete stop the idle settles down to a perfect VX idle around 800 than as a VX will do after about 2 or 3 minutes it settles to about 600.
