Hi all
New here, i'm not a mechanic. Ive had a real niggling problem with my car, i will give as much detail as possible. I bought the car and had the timing belt changed, my wife filled the car with petrol and started it up, but after realizing what she had done switched it off. We had the tank pumped and all seemed ok. After a week or so i noticed the automatic transmission was acting erratically and the car would rock when idling. I took it to audi and they replaced the fly wheel. This sorted the transmission problem but not the idling issue. I took it to another garage where they inspected and cleaned my air filter, plugs and injectors. They seemed to have made the car worse. the car still idles rough (but rev counter stays perfectly still) and now when the car is labored it shudders. To fix this i just need to give my car a little extra power and it goes away. This is the same fix when the car is idling, a tap on the accelerator and the problems gone. I had the engine mounts replaced but with no change. I must add that when the car is cold it seems to run great, its only when it warms up. At the end of my tether now and am hoping for some help. many thanks guys
