Really low idle after EGR cleaning

My 02 P5 was a bit sluggish from a dead stop, idled fine, but went great after you got moving. It has just over 100k miles. I cleaned the EGR valve per directions found on this forum, as well as the IAC valve. I also ran some seafoam through the vacuum line via the brake booster. I put everything back together, reset the computer, and now it almost dies when in gear at a dead stop. Once it gets going, it seems to run great. I triple checked all of the hoses and other connections, and they seem to be intact. I am not looking forward to bringing it to the stealership. Any other ideas??? Thanks in advance.
 
The computer needs to relearn everything,... give it some time,... it should fix itself in about 100 miles or so.
 
What would have been a good idea is to do those 3 things in a seperate time, so then you know what goes wrong
bringing many factors will cause u headaches. But yeah, let the car reset within a few miles, and clean the MAF too
