    I screwed up.....

    So I thought I was the shit and everything for finally getting my timing belt changed and stuff, saving myself all sorts of money... right? Well, everything seemed fine until I went for a test drive. For the drive was great, taking it easy, sounded perfect. New timing belt, tensioner, water pump, some new plugs... yay.
    No kidding, as soon as I pulled into my driveway tonight (I have to crank the steering wheel almost full right to get in) I start flashing a code, and I notice the engine running extremely rough. I can hear one cylinder misfiring (sounds like #4) and idle is at least 100rpm lower than normal. I wish I had a VAG or OBD tool to pull something for you guys, but unfortunately I dont, and nobody in P-cola does Audi's (one guy does VW's but he doesnt know crap).
    I would have thought if I was a tooth off I would have thrown a code right away; any chance it somehow slipped or something? Right now we're at the limit of my knowledge with this car; I swear if I have to pull that crap off to get to my timing belt again I might just snap. Any help you guys could give would be friggin awesome.
