Default MAP P0106 Problem

Hello,
My G8 has mostly sat during winter and now I have been driving it. Check engine light comes on with a P0106 light ONLY city driving, not highway. I have replaced the sensor and the same thing keeps happening. As soon as the light comes on the idle drops then speeds up then drops until a stall. NOTING has been changed with the car - and just checked the idle pressure and it is around 49-51kpa.

Thanks...

I re-flashed the ECM with the same tune, and back to normal, maybe a bug?

Im getting the same code since I dropped my idle rpm back down to 725. For me, I wonder if the issue is with the blower, cam, and low rpm that the map sensor is fluctuating too much and causing issues.
