Also noticed a bit of uneasy idling not sure if this is an accessory kicking on. But even with AC off i see the digital needle moving a bit, today i noticed a huge jump to 1k rpm for a second then back down.
Yes, there's a thread about it on the General Forum.

Also yes for "uneasy idling," but not frequent at all. I've also had the fan kick on to VERY HIGH when I got out of the car while it was on to get something from the house. I initially though one of my kids was stepping on the gas pedal to rev up the engine, but nope, just the fan.

The only concerning part for me is the "rod knock" type noise that sometimes happens when idling the engine after turning it on. I'm assuming it's just S58 things.
Yeah rod knock noise on start up

Relatively rough idle at some times

And super loud cool down fans
