You might want to try a tune up. Maybe clean the throttle out. and the injectors would be nice....

Yes there is a way to do it however it is not recomended! If you have any codes, check engine light on, or if the idle is unstable or rough, then the IAC, or idle air controller should be replaced!
Curb idle warm engine is 600-800 rpm.

You have checked all 4 wheels?
The other thing is, with a floating caliper design, you may be hitting the rust line when braking! Not dangerous, only annoying! Machine the rotors to solve...
