How much did it cost u pal
Thanks for the cradentials, Hassan i have a good running engine with no cam wear i can supply and fit for you, drop me a pm if interested !It will vary, from the symptoms you are describing - it would point to camshaft wear.
If you can take off one of the rocker covers like Turkster has shown, it will reveal if the camshafts are worn or not.
If your not comfortable doing this yourself, take it to an independent garage to inspect the wear for you.
If it is the camshafts and you take the car to Audi, I would expect the job to be around or over the £2,000 mark.
Personally, I would have the car taken to Chris (adamss24) - he knows these engines better than the back of his hand.
Noo not that blue one i bough this is in sheffield just two daus later engine started. To knock
