A rough or unstable idle, hesitation when you press the pedal or a check engine light can point to a throttle body that is sticking or reading wrong. Before you replace it, rule out an intake air leak or a wiring fault, because either can produce a similar rough idle. A shop can test the throttle body electronics.
