Default Low idle?

Just a few minutes ago i went out to start my car, and is seemed like it was idle very low, like 400rpms... It started at about 1000rpms, then went down to 400 and back to about 800rpms and stayed there... Does this seem normal? Its a 99WS6 m6

My car has done that several times after I start it up. But once I turned it off and start it again it idles normal. Have you tried restarting it.
