In my on-going efforts to track down what is causing the high/erratic revs on my S3 (see thread here) it has been recommended that I try a throttle body off a car that is/was known to idle perfectly at 900 ish rpm (as opposed to my 1500-2000 rpm!). If anyone has one out there that definitely worked correct and which they are willing to lend me (or even sell) so that I can try it on my car and rule out yet another potential problem error that would be great!

Clearly diagnosis by replacement is far from ideal, but I've tried just about everything else and am starting to run out of ideas!

I will have a spare off the Reserve once I have swapped the heads over. Idles pretty solidly. Its an S3.
