Idle/stalling Isuue
Hey new here but not to audis or tuning audis, Need some help. I have a 2007 audi a4 2.0TQMT6 aftermarket pats include custom short ram intake, forge dv spacer, and 034 motor sports test pie w/ o2 extender to eliminate CEL.
Lately as it has been getting colder up here in NY my car will sometimes stall, but it only happens when i push the clutch before coming to a stop. The rpms go down below idle and the car just stalls all while i'm either on the clutch and in gear or in neutral this is a big pain as it happens intermediately but sometimes its will happen every time i come to a stop, until i shut the car off and let her rest for a bit before continuing my drive. this is truly a pain. Can anyone help me? PLEASE!!

Not sure if this applies or not but when my PCV went bad a couple of years ago I had similar issues with poor idling and stalling. This only lasted for 30 seconds or so after starting.
hey thanks for the ideas. i haven't tried to take the oil cap off with the engine running ill try that and compare the difficulty to when the engine is off. also i wish my problem only happened a few minutes after start up...but it does it all the time even if i have been driving for a few hours, and it happens randomly its very odd i changed the air filter with a new hi flow but still the same problem. i think it might be a boost leak thats causing the turbo to spool at rpms that are too slow and chokes the engine. any ideas?? i need to fix this asap. i want to get an s4 but cant sell myt a4 if it stalls on a test drive...please help
Mine is doing the same. I have an Auto and since there is load on the tranny the car drops low but does not stall. I don't have time to hit the dealer during the hollidays so it will need to wait. I have a CPO warrany so I just gotta get up there.
Took mine in and it was the PCV valve causing my issue. Imagine that I wrote the FAQ on crap like this. Get a BSH valve unless you want to go to the dealer under warranty. If you are under CPO and not factory the deductable will nearly buy the BSH unit. I have the BSH on my VW.
BSH PCV fix sucks. After I had it installed, the erratic idle problem went away, but while driving the car felt like it was going to stall when I came to a stop. Also, it messed with my turbo. I wasn't getting any boost after having the BSH fix installed professionally. I went with the new OEM Pressure Regulator Valve (PCV) which by the way was $15 cheaper from the DEALER, and all my troubles went away.
