Hello,
so I was driving like normal but then I stopped on intersection and the car started shaking like hell and RPMs started to go up and down, it sounded like it is running on 3 or 4 cilinders but no light on dashboard was on, but when I started driving it went away and it sounded OK. I stopped at a parking lot and the car stalled, so I started it back on and from that point it behaves normally, no shaking, no wierd noises and smooth idle. I am thinking maybe the Gearbox ? it has 145k miles.

Sounds like a MAF or throttle issue. If it persists it will throw a code or two and give you more to go off of. Let us know.

Hello,
About two days ago my car started to shake at idle and the RPMs st arted to going up and down. At one point the car have stalled on me. It only do this sometimes and wen it is warm and i have no CEL. So far i cleaned MAF, throttle body and OCV without any results. To me it also feel like the car is sometimes stuter when driving on constant speed. Spark plugs are new.

Sounds like there's a vacuum leak. Check the air resonator box for hairline cracks. It can get brittle over the years due to its location next to the exhaust manifold, so pay extra attention to the underside of the box where it's taking the most heat.

I cleaned MAF, throttle body and the OCV and its filter. Happend once after the cleaning so I ordered new OCV for like 20 dollars. Still waiting for the delivery but the car is driving smooth for like 3 days so far

I found out, that it only does this when it is fully warmed up and when i put AC on it is a tiny bit better. Also when i start it cold the RPMs spike to 1500 for about a second or two and then drop dow to normal idle
