    Car Problem

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Was wondering if any of you guys know where I can get my car looked at in Orlando? I've posted about it and can't seem to find the problem with my idle. Thinkin about taking it to a local shop instead of the stealership. Thanks

    Re: Car Problem

    Thanks for the recommendation. My car is having problems when it starts from a cold start. I start the car with no problem but when I put it in drive or reverse and take my foot off the brake the RPMs dip down to about 600-700 and the car vibrates and acts like it wants to stall. Also there is a ratteling noise coming from under the car. I had it on a lift and the exhaust and heat shield sounded solid. I have changed my spark plugs, cleaned my MAF and checked for vacum leaks (unless I am missing one) with no improvement. Getting fustrated!

    thanks for coming by! MAF sensors are an issue with A4's all the time, too bad that other shop couldn't help you out. Let me know when you are ready for that intake or exhaust :)

    Thanks for the great service! It's a little bit of a drive but worth it. I changed my air filter to the OEM and still getting that ratteling noise but not as bad. RPM's seem to be better. Will see how it runs for the next few days. Thanks again.

    UPDATE: Went to ETA and the idle and rattleing noise was still there. Dave said it is prob the fuel filter and fuel pump goin. He was right on!!! I changed out my fuel filter and pump and the idle is perfect and the rattle noise went away! Thanks ETA!!!
