Unhappy Idle problem

My car has been idling kind of funny (below 500 rpm). Noticeable problems are coming to a full stop and starting the car. Sometime, I drive around and come to a stop and car just...die, wtf. Or, I have been driving for awhille, stop somewhere, and start the car and car just...die, wtf. Does anyone know what cause this problem. Thank you for any great inputs.

Didn't have any issues last summer. I live in CA and the heat can be bad sometime. But is it bad enough that sometime the car just die after turn on the ignition? I hate to take it to the dealership (there are no Subaru dealership in Stockton, unfortunately). Can someone please help me with this? Thanks.
