Just wondering if all ETM issues are the same and exactly what I should be looking for or whether I should be worried.

I picked the car up on 158k miles and it still pulls like a train and has mostly main dealer FSH.However, when you stop at traffic lights for example, the idle can hunt and goes a fraction over 1k rpm and a fraction under.If you take the auto box out of drive and put it in park or neutral, it seems to hunt far less (or simply not at all) and mostly sits ticking over happily.

Is this a bad sign, or could this be related to something else?
