Tallika_Fan Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 Is it always or just on startup?Could be a number of things contributing to it. Manky throttle body, try giving it a quick clean, could be a suspect throttle body itself, i know mine is faulty though i can't justify the cost of a new one currently so i can live with erratic idle on cold starts.

If you clean the throttle body, either way the idle speed base will need resetting with VAG-COM, i think the ECU will adjust after 30 miles or so.

Tallika_Fan Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Not all are FBY, mine is cable, being an early one, not sure if this has any impact or not though. (I know that my throttle body is goosed anyway, it's thrown a wobbler in VAG-COM) My problem though. Hopefully the OP will get it sorted.
