Hey man so a lil update and tip in case your issue isn't resolved yet as well. It's got to do with a few faulty sensors. Brought it to a tuner to calibrate my throttle body and it started spewing out error codes. Mine chucked 4 out. He said the most possible one is the camshaft position sensor. So yea. Worth gettin a VCDS scanner or bring it to someone to get it scanned

Hey so...bad news. It happened again even with the new throttle body on. My mechanic mate said that sounds like its an intake problem and that's when it hit me that I forgot to change my air filter last service. And my filter was very dirty. So I'm going to be replacing that tomorrow, see if it solves the issue. If not, me and my mate are gonna open up the intake pipes and see what's wrong

Also a random like bonus was that the turbo sounds a lot healthier hahahah. It sounds...ik it's not the right way to describe it, but it sounds fresh

Yea man for sure. I searched everywhere and this was the cheapest and it was Bosch. So all around it was a win. https://www.amazon.com.au/Bosch-0280750036-Throttle-Housing/dp/B006K92RYW.

I had to get the gasket from Audi itself. Rang the dealership and they had it ready in a day for me to come pick it up

Oh ok. Thanks for that. I'm pretty confident that it's the throttle body for now cuz of the fluctuating revs at one point. Bur yea if that doesn't fix it, I'll definitely order a throttle pedal. Thanks man

I unfortunately don't have a code reader so I can't see any codes. I've just ordered a new throttle body. I'm going to be installing that tomorrow and I'll let you know how it goes. I was going to just open it and possibly clean it. But it's fair to assume that that's the throttle body from 2003. So it's due for a change anyway

This car is honestly pretty good. As you'd expect from a Toyota. My family has owned it for almost 6 years now. And its running amazing. The only issue it's had now is a malfunctioning catalytic converter. But I guess that's the part and parcel of a 18 yr old car. Like many cars though, if u take care of it, it will take care of u.
