Default Help needed.

Hi i have a 2001 audi a4 1.8, and lately when in idle or at a stop, my rpm gauge fluctuates fromone point to another. Sometimes it does this sometimes it doesn't. Does anyone know what the problem might be. Thanks

Default Small vacuum leak, dirty throttle body and or it needs a throttle body adaption would be my guesses.

If you use the search feature and look for idle hunting you'll get some hits that may flesh it out for you.
