bucking when idling
hEY:
I own a 2001 A4 (1.8T Q) 5 speed
When I am idling, every once and a while, the engine will "buck" when it "bucks" the tach drops about 100 rpms then it goes back to normal. It's like a hiccup!
It's botherong the hell out of me.
Any solutions or ideas?

If you have no codes and have done normal maintenance,
try Seafoaming.

It does not happen only during cold starts. I have an ODB II "pocket scan" and I will try to run a test and post the findings.
Thanks a million,,,
