Low Idle....

About 2 weeks ago I had my oil changed at a shop here close to my house with mobil1 oil and mobil1filter for the first time. When I got in the car and started to drive off, the car did a sputter like a quick hop forward, then ran beautifully….the car felt lighter, there was no way I could of thought that an oil change made it feel lighter, not as sluggish. Well when I left the shop and drove down the street and stopped at a red light the cars idle was too low…from what I remember the needle used to be at 1000 rpms now its way below that….anyone have any idea why this happened? Any possible ideas what could have caused this?

here was what i saw....is this normal?

I think 400-600 rpm is normal idle once it is warm. 1,000 is too high unless the car is cold. I had the dealer turn mine up to 850.
