Default problems already!

just got a 02 ws6 with 56000 miles. Went on a 250 mile trip and this is what happend. After about 100miles when I would push in the clutch the rpm's would go up about 500 more and then drop, just thought the clutch (which is original) was slipping. Then the service engine light came on and it felt like it was running a little rough, and when I would be idling at a red light the rpm's would constantly go up and down from 1000 to 1400. the car is completely stock.......please help

Bring your car to AutoZone; they will scan your service engine light for free. Then report back here with the code(s) it's throwing and we will try and help you out.
