I now belive everydsm owner in the world will one day run into this problem... so we should unite us idle idiots and help each other i see that there is alot of posts on here and lucky for those people that it helped i wish i was one of them and anyone having this problem still wishes they were one of them too... I belive i somwhat fixed the idle portion of my surge if that makes anysense. Heres what its doing 1st gear hit the gas... slower than your grandmother hit 2500 bucks a sec, gets some boost, goes 4000 bucks doesnt pick up like it should... second gear same thing but between 2500-4000 rpm like a normal car should run not like a tsi awd should run ?? can anyone picture that? im sure if you have had this problem you can... i recently took the TB off and gave it a good scrubbing with carb cleaner (so shiny : )) put it back on and now it will hold a steady rather than going from 600-1000 back to 600. Replaced some gaskets and someother thing, plugs and, wires
but of course to true dsm nature my car runs crappy my last idea to check havnt had a chance yet is the mass air, it is hacked im guess its sending faulty signals to the comp please some one save me a trip to the shop because im about to give up.....
BTW it also smells extremly rich and my exhaust shoots out little drops of what i assume to be fuel please help me out and anyone else with this anoying prblem
