Basically... every now and again when i pull up at a set of lights the revs hover between 500 and 1700 revs, asif it cant decide where tickover is... extremely weird like its got a mind of its own... i have got a feeling its a sensore somewere... but its not really a big problem... apart from when it cums to pulling away i look like a learner driver lol...

was just wondering if anyone else had experienced these problems? and how they dealt with it?...

sounds to me as if it could be the i.c.v (idle control valve)
