BMK 3.0 TDi hunting erratic idle revs ( Have I got the most lemon A6!!! )

[gupsterg]

So it seems you may have arrived or be suspecting injectors.....

Yes Fieldy they were at the back of my mind even when doing chain rattle... after becoming an owner to solve things I gained access to things which made it apparent that due to the complexities of this car mechanically/electrically should have gone newer... so my bad luck

Looking at TSB's again manifestation of issues can vary due to wear/how many go,etc... I would assume before anything wear excessive their must be indications of it going...

I agree the A6 Quattro in V6 TDi for comparison with Merc/BMW offering does beat them IMO... both not having Quattro another tick

So much of car has been checked by me... me and wifey are also thinking if sell will someone just pop some injectors in and enjoy all the bits I've sussed on it...
I really feel after all the bits we've done only swirl flap motors is left... checking arms on them they look AOK

Hi gup, been reading this thread with interest and sharing in your pain and disappointment. don't do anything hasty, wait to see what advice a8 tech has. What about a single injector, at least for now, any point? I know you should but is it absolutely essential to change the complete set?

I agree mate will check all routes... done too much... but if my A6 get chop so be it!

Hi Gup, I cannot believe the luck you have had with this car!...

If I had not bought Crafter I would have gone all 6... may just investigate routes...today went out done some videos... dropped her in sports mode and booted her about... when revs climb you would be mistaken you were not in a Diesel estate... that racy noise... the grip of Quattro... you can feel the weight of the car in D but S mode really make me I think that's what's made me go on and on with this car...

... I thought I had bad luck with my Megane having to put 2 engines in it!

Cars hey you expect issues... I always do when buying used... but never have had so much removed and put back,etc.. Ah well let see where we go Chris

And Sparker thanks for pushing towards throttle it was just a matter of time before it went poof!

And Brycie, AN AUDI FAN, Rosscow.... thanks for support mates...

And A8 you know I think thanks for your time and all post on the WWW...
