engine ldles rough when up to operating temp

car is 2013 model and is under certified extended warranty. took it into the dealer where i bought it and complained about the rough ldle and all they did was ckd. the plugs and the pcv valve. they are trying to tell me this is a normal characteristic of this engine. called a different dealer and they said i need to have the injectors cleaned for the price of 120.00 dollars and he claims the engine is carboned up and the process will clean the carbon out of it, this sound like a come on to me. this engine only idles at about 500 rpm when up to operating temp. i think it is either running too lean or else it needs to have the idle rpm increased. is there any way to increase the idyl speed increased. it run just fine and does not idyl rough until it is up to operating temp. any thoughts on this?
