I too has this minor slack & when i check with the toyota service center, they say it's normal as Dohc VVT-i engine is like that. Dun worry abt that as nothg wrong with your car engine... I own a 2.0L Wish. Hope it will ease your mind.... ;-)

clean the idling control valve with carburator cleaner. Just remove your intake hose, in the throtle body there's 1 small hole at the bottom part (right in front of the butterfly valve), just spray some carburator cleaner in there and this will clean the clog inside the valve. It did good for my Wish. I'm driving a 1.8 model.
