    Help please...'02 A4 2.0FSI Low idle speed/lumpy missfire and sometimes hard to start

    No update from me mate. Has all new coils an still the same bag of crap. I'm just driving it, it's fine over 1k revs (may e a slight murmur but that's all). Mpg isn't great but I can live with it. Took it to a garage and all they said was the coils...no other idea. I'm over it, I will drive it...

    Help please...'02 A4 2.0FSI Low idle speed/lumpy missfire and sometimes hard to start

    Update...I can now smell fuel when i pull up on the driveway...seems to be coming from the back of the engine down underneath the MAF (or maybe that's the throttle body?) Any ideas, the one Coil didnt do much. I could have more than one gone but i dont want to waste more cash until i rule other...

    MOVE TO B6 Please Help with poor idle, smell of petrol and occasional hard starter.

    Hi guys, I bought the car (52 plate A4 avant 2.0 FSI Sport) a month ago. When i got it home i found that sometimes it would idle lumpy and fairly low RPM (around 750-800rpm). It has a slight missfire i think but never stalls. The car pulls well and gives ok MPG (its my first petrol in a while...

    Help please...'02 A4 2.0FSI Low idle speed/lumpy missfire and sometimes hard to start

    Any further ideas then lads? I can't find the breather... I have pinched all the hoses I can find and it does nothing. I did see though that there is quite a bit of black gunk inside one of the rocker cover plastic pipes. I guess am going to have to get it looked at unless someone can tell...

    Help please...'02 A4 2.0FSI Low idle speed/lumpy missfire and sometimes hard to start

    Well today I bought a coil pack from GSF... tried it in each plug and no change. I will try and find this breather now and try the 'pinch the hose' test. Hopefully I can find the breather! Thanks *EDIT* I can't seem to find the breather. Mine is the 2.0FSI non-turbo...anyone know...

    Have you had this problem with yours then? Where are the coilpacks? Is that the red boxes on the top of the engine? Sorry for the ignorance, i have not got much experience of these cars. Cheers

    Help please...'02 A4 2.0FSI Low idle speed/lumpy missfire and sometimes hard to start

    Hi Guys, Just bought the above car and it runs OK. However, sometimes it takes a couple trys to start, or it will start and cut out then require a bit of accelerator to get it to start. When its started it doesn't stall but does run a little lumpy with the odd splutter...a definate...

    Why does my SPORT not have OBC or Armrest? :Fuming:

    Sorry to dig up an old'ish thread but I have just bought a 2002 A4 Avant FSI Sport (to replace a BMW 330d M-sport) and don't have half of the toys i used to have! I really want the DIS (i only have how much fuel till empty, no toggles on the stalk). So can i just buy the correct stalk and take...
