Idle issues after changing the battery

[theboyfold]

Just had to swap over the battery on my 2000 Boxster S, and when I started it up to check everything was working again I noticed the idle was a little strange, it was bouncing around between about 700rpm and 1000rpm.

Could this be an issue caused by swapping over the battery as it certainly wasn't like that before?
Thanks

I think it's probably the ECU that's been reset when the battery was disconnected and now it's learning the engine/fuel/exhaust settings again. It should settle down after a few blasts on the road.

Sounds like a good excuse to head out for a spin to me!!
