    Need help with p0130, poor idle

    Hi everyone , I'm having a weird issue that I can't figure out. So I'm turning to you guys for advice.

    I bough an 01 a4 turbo Quattro.

    Looks like previous owner did all kinds of weird stuff to it

    Info:

    Car had 30lb Injectors and a split second boost controller. On a stock computer. Car was running like carp. Went back to stock injectors and got rid of the split second box . Car drives decent now. But I do have a p0130 code (malfunction with primary o2)

    So far I have:
    Tried 3 other o2s from working cars
    Tried 2 mafs
    Rewired the 02 all the way to ecu
    Boost leak test. No leaks all check valves working

    I have vcds but the pc is at the shop now getting a new screen .

    My generic scanner shows 0v during open loop of course , but when,it switches to closed loop the voltage starts to drop and stays at -1.4 v and car starts to shake.. anyone had similar issues? Any suggestions?

    I had the same code, put a new one in, car runs great. Then a few days later i got this code again so i just cleared it. It hasn't come back in over a week now. My car idles normally but once in a while the rpms dip to 500 then back up to 800. Then it idles fine. But I can tell when the code comes back on bc ill start getting an unusual amount of smoke out of the tail pipe, I have a test pipe so its worse then normal. Does your car idle normally or is it rough?

    I tried my friends ecu and I checked with the scanner and the voltage is a bit more steady. Stays around 0 and climbs as I accelerate. As far as idle it's rough for about a minute but as soon as the code sets seems to idle better as if it's running of a predefined map... just order another ecu hopefully that fixes my issue. I'll report back soon
