Default 05 sxt low idle? and shifting?

Have an 05 sxt with 60,000 miles.... the car idles at 500-700 rpm, no check engine light on, but seems to stutter a tiny tiny bit when idling. Any ideaS?
Also, has regular oil changes, new plugs and wire set, and air filter within 300 miles, but the idling has been going on for quite some time now. Never shuts off, just a tiny stutter sometimes.

Also, when accerlerating, after having to apply brake and slow down, it feels like it's going back into gear hard? Trans fluid is not low. Any ideas?

And... the brakes are annoying. Bought semi cheap pads first time replaced them with good rotors. Had to replace those pads within 2-3k but they were barely worn. Now have expensive pads on there, and they are doing the same thing... squealing like all hell (even with the brake lube - non squeal), really gotta press them to stop, and they haven't been on there for anymore then 2-3k any ideas? The squealing is rather annoying since NOTHING seems to stop it, except for the first 2 days of new pads. They aren't worn.

Thanks for all help.
