Actually this is a issue with the X if you turn in on and dont drive it and off then on again it will be rough. It was on this forum and also heard the same from couple of mechanics. The x likes to be driven and when you turn it on and off the engine is basically flooded and it will idle rough like you said. ive taken it to the dealer and they have said the same thing. I have 4 cars so at night i have to do a little rearranging and some times in the morning and its always when i mvoe in the morning and come down 10 mins later it does that. so now just rev the enging a little and off and it hasnt happened. but that is normal if thats the situation that happened to you.
