Sounds like misfire due to bad coil pack? Sometimes coilpacks get tiny cracks that sometimes allows moisture In

Were in summer lol over 100 degree weather theres no moisture getting in that. No cracks, not a missfire issue. That wouldnt cause crazy idle and my cluster lights to flicker. Then run perfectly normal after restart, No engine code tripped for missfire

There is a hose that leads from the back of the engine to the top of the engine. Close to where the variable oil control valve is located if there is a small crack idling would be an issue as well coolant sensor not idiling properly.
