Check the basics. Clean mass airflow sensor, throttle body check the fuel pump driver module. Check plugs, cops. Start cheapest do what I first mentioned and if that doesn't work keep on going through the stuff. There are tons of threads about rough idle just keep researching and hopefully it's an easy fix. Definitely start with the mass airflow sensor and throttle body. Hope that helps.

Nice you found the problem. But you should still clean the mass airflow sensor and throttle body if you never have.
