2011 Altima! This morning drove to work. Vehicle drove good. When stopped at a light, car had a bit of a rough idle. It idles fine at about 900rpm then all of a sudden rpm drop a bit and it accelerates back up to 900-1000rpm. It does this intermittently. No codes habe came up. What can be the problem???

Something's wrong to start with if it's idling at 900~1000. Idle RPM on the 2.5's should be around 650~700. Vacuum leak maybe?
