Dip In Idle RPMs


I posted a thread about 8 months ago about my RPMs dipping well below 500 after decelerating (occasionally, not consistently) causing me to stall and got good feedback about it probably being my O2 sensors.

The problem disappeared a month later and I haven't had it since until late this month. Driving to and from school, engine fully warmed up, and the problem is back.

Clearly ambient temperature has something to do with this since it stopped in February and started again in November. Any other ideas or is it still probably a bad O2 sensor?

[edit] My bad, I was blind and didn't see this thread but answer if anyone can please.
