Default Minor Rough Idle Coming To A Stop (S 60)

So today i went to my Volvo mechanic and had my plugs replaced with my mileage at 123.000,they used the o.e.m. plugs from Volvo. Before the plug change the car had zero issues at all it was just time for a plug change since i didn't do it at the last service that was required,today on the ride home from the shop everything is normal but one weird issue and that is when i come to a stop i hear the engine give a weird rough idle or a slight rumble(or kind of like a missfire )for a couple of seconds before it drops down to a normal idle at a complete stop. Everything else is normal acceleration and normal driving with no change in engine performance,so im thinking that if there was a real issue it would be throwing a message or a warning light? I guess i need to take it on the bypass and let her have some high speed and throttle and see if it irons out the little glitch,or are the plug gaps wrong..who knows? I was also told today that my Upper Engine Stabilizer Mount needs to be replaced for my inspection and im going back for that next week,maybe that is part of the issue...Any ideas??

Specify what year and model (T5, 2.4, 2.5) so the experts can diagnose and suggest steps to check the car. You may have an ETM problem. Any CEL?

Default Update On This Issue...

Went back to the Volvo Service this morning and the problem was a spark plug on cylinder #2,the plug was cracked where the ceramic part meets the threaded metal part. It was totaly separated when removed from the car the tech said.
