I'm guessing what your saying is that it doesn't idle properly so you're going to change the ECU?

its like a human !! bare wi mi if the bones in the leg are faultless muscles tendens skins blood nerves and what ever else lol    all in good workin order but you still cant walk what holding the legs back ????? the brain maybe ....mind made up fo me the ecu from mk3 vbuds were not upto job simple as ....
I'm guessing your saying that if your legs are fine but don't work it's your brains fault... also you think the MK3 ECU is sh!t...

You haven't even said what you have done or what car it is, but i be changing the ECU doesn't solve it....

I agree totally in fact I will put money on it not being the ecu!

Just re-read many times trying to understand this drivel, and I think what hes unsuccessfully trying to get across is that his 'mint' mk3 has a rough idle, and the only thing it could possibly be is 'gotta b the ecu no questions about it' because 'the ecu from mk3 vbuds were not upto job simple as'

So there you have it, rough idle, just change the ecu!

Remember kids, just because your Saxo/Corsa/Nova lost a race to a Golf doesnt mean you have to go out and buy one

Maybe he'sm friends with this guy

"Hey guys, I've got a 98 1.8T. I've had a k04 and chip for a while and wanted to get more performance. I was recommended to port and polish the intake and exhaust. We found out they used abrasive material to do it like gritty sand. So I got with my friend that tunes Hondas and we decided to try it ourselves. We got a bag of sandblasting sand and hooked up into the intake and started the car. We had to hold the gas so it would run. He wanted to let the engine suck in the sand through the intake so it would port it out and then push it out the ehxaust so it would port the exhaust manifold.
I was worried that it might cause problems but he figured it'd be OK as long as we didn't make boost and it get sucked in the turbo. After running the car and letting it suck in sand we got about half way through a 25 lb bag. The check engine light was on and the engine was bucking and kicking and sounding really weird. We stopped and hooked the car back up normal and took off the sand supply. We tried to start it again and it was really hard. Once started it couldn't idle and kept making weird noises. We took it out and drove it and it started to make scraping and knocking noises.
Help! Can anyone tell me what to do! My buddy only does Hondas so he doesn't know much about Audis. "


Would explain a lot...
