Hi All masters:
Good day!

Just acquired a used A32 2.0 last month.

My problem/symptom:
On cold start (e.g. in the morning), even if the car has warmed up traveled a certain distance, during idle (say, while waiting the turn of light), the idle timing drops to ~600 rpm (gear shift in "N"). If I restart the car, the idle timing "could" return to normal (~800-900 rpm). I use "could" because this workaround works only 50% of the time.

So far for a month of possession, this happens about 5 to 6 times. Since the forth occurrence of this symptom, I've changed to RON97. It happens less frequent after the change of fuel grade.

What could be wrong? Please help!

Thanks.
