Default XR8 idle

Have a 2001 XR8 Auto.

Running like a dream until after disconnecting the battery to replace a steering wheel.

Now she starts fine but idles like a pig in park and neutral. Hunts around 300-600. As soon as she's placed in drive or reverse she picks up to 800 and all is good. Often after a drive when placing her in park or neutral she will just drop and stall. Air con on or off doesn't appear to make a difference.

Any ideas other than plugs/leads/coilpacks? I've reset the ECU using the procedure twice now to no effect.

Cheers,

Ian
