Check for stored engine codes and give us more information on your car, such as mileage.

Could be a bad spark plug, ignition module, or possibly a plugged gas filter or bad fuel pump,

I have changed the sparks with oem from audi , and fuel fitler plus air filter then it improved and shows full power but after two weeks it become slower and i the rpm plays between 700 and 775.

should be throwing codes at you..... do you have a check engine light on??


for the rough idle give this stuff a try.
it smothed out my idle, so i guess it would be worth a try.

lacking power... ehhh.
could be a bad fuel pump, bad maf signal or timing signal ( aka belt jumped when you downshited )
