I recently changed the electronic throttle body about 2 months ago and here recently when I turn on my car it starts flashing and idling funny. I let the car warm up a little bit turn it off then I turn it back on and it works fine.

It sounds like you have a defective electronic throttle body. Was it an OEM replacement? We should run the codes to see what comes up.
