A4 2.0 TDI tickover.....

[Farky]

Picked up our 55 plate A4 2.0tdi s-line yesterday and absolutely luv it!!

When the car is stationery and just ticking over though, the engine feels like it shakes more than usual, itl tick over perfect, nice n smooth then now n again itll give a shake! Is this a 2.0tdi trait?
Also, 1st gear feels VERY tall, when pulling away it feels as if its very laggy, underpowered but as soon as ur on the move and into 2nd gear, the turbo spools up perfect and the car accelerates vreat! Again, is this a 2.0tdi trait?

Cheers, Ian

First gear is pretty short on them and I'm pretty sure they're boost limited too (to make pulling away smoother).

If you've just bought it do you know when it was last serviced? Last fuel filter etc?

That would explain it perfect mate, defo sounds like thats wot it is
Thanks
