Default Strange RPM drop after letting off throttle.

Hey guys, I did the timing belt on the car yesterday, and after filling coolant and starting it up I noticed after revving the car to 2k rpm and letting off the throttle that there was a dip in RPM's below the normal idle. Is this normal?

It's usually a fuel metering issue or vacuum leak. Could be a failing MAF or small vacuum leak. If you have access to a VAGcom, check fuel trims.
