Theres a roughness coming from the front end, im thinking the belts? When i rev in neutral its not smooth, it feels rough and grindy.

Im going to be doing the 80k service soon.

what should i look for with these symptoms?

btw, i had the TB done at 58K.
swing in and we'll take a look at it... most likely, however, you just need plugs

ORIGINAL: a4specials

I have similar problem but i am not too sure as to say what it is as yet. But i was driving in steptronic took a corner then alll of a sudded ma audi sounds like some old car with that noise in the engine but then again my engine it self doesn't vibrate or nothing when i poped hood the manfold and the part that goes to the moffler was red bright red as in very hot. So whats does that mean. Also i checked ma pil just to check and i say lil bumble in it ont he dipstick when i took it out. Tmorrw i will try and figure out more but if what i am saying makes any sense and you have an idea as to what i am talking about just hit me up and let me know. Thanks
sounds like a couple cars we've had.. it ended up being bad MAF's.. so i'd start with that.

As I wrote before, change the spark plugs. You should read the old ones, they should be tan or light brown. If one of them is black that cylinder might be missing. You could swap coils with another cylinder.

clean the throttle body too if you have a rough idle.
