you almost sold your car because you cant get it to idle smoothly?

recalibrate your TPS.

also, sell that gay VW and get a haltech or something. that'll fix your idle.

it not that i cant get it to idle. Its that loud knocking/shaking that it does. Could it just be really bad timing? like my cas being messed up. Also i have a jspec ecu with a chip. And for some reason it wont run in chip mode any more. I think when my mop went it fried the chip? and now the car will only run when it have it switched back to stock. so could the ecu just be seriously messed up and i should try and find a us spec s5 tii ecu?

I had a little vw club i was in too:
