It's either your Idle air control valve sticking or your entire throttle body may need replacing,check them both.

it would not be an O2 sensor, period, they would never cause a high idle, have u had this checked for trouble codes? A sticking idle speed control air bypass can cause this problem as well as a throttle position sensor, but run the codes, Kragen does it for free was well as other parts stores.

You could have a dirty Fuel Filter, try changing that first since it's the easiest and cheapest to do. You'll find the filter i believe on the inside if the frame under the drivers area. The only other thing i can think of is a fuel Pump going bad and not producing enough fuel pressure.
Best thing, start with the fuel filter and get the truck scanned for any DTC codes.
Good luck and hope this helps.

SOURCE: high Idle in park

I would check for a vaccum leak if there is not then you might suspect the idle air control or the mass air flow, is there a check engine light on

Speedo and rev counter reading even when engine is off!

I have a similar problems on my 2005 9-3. It has developed a number of minor electical issues. including dial and false warning light triggers. I have fixed most of them by simply going round the car disconnecting the electical connectors and spraying "switch cleaner" (Maplin or Radio Shack).
The only problem I have left is the rev counter occasionally starts reading high, removing the fuse (end of dash panel - 4th fuse down) for about 30s with engine off normally resets everything back to normal.
Hope that helps.

Car rev up and down at startup, also car jerks at release of gas

There is a vacuum leak somewhere in the intake system. A very common problem on these cars is a PCV valve that gets stuck open and replacing that first is very cheap. If that doesn't solve the problem, then you'll have to go hunting. Listening very carefully for a hissing sound in the engine compartment will often lead you to a hose that is off or a gasket that has failed. You can also spray small amounts of aerosol carb cleaner at suspect areas to confirm the leak. The engine will change revs when fed the carb cleaner.
