Car starts and idles really low, sometimes stalls. When warm it idles at just under 1000 as normal.

Steve, in my rush to find ADR specific information, I did not pay attention
to the model of vehicle. The above pdfs are for a '98 A4.

I will delete the above files & re-upload them with Audi 100 info.

The components are pretty much the same, the ECM is located in a different
place though.

Sorry about that. I have lots of wiring diagrams, but I'm still
looking for a good set that show fuse 4 branches / component layout.

Excellent thanks. Don't worry about the audi 100 my car is an a4 the site just changed it but I couldn't correct it. The info you sent is exactly right. There in the location it shows and has the same amount of pins on the electrical clips. So the fuse 4 diagram is also for the audi a4. Sorry for the mis understanding

THROTTLE BODY PROBLEM FIXED!
Thanks for all your help. This fix was a bit of a fluke really. I decided to replace the 7 core wiring going from boot lid to body. I disconnected the battery and did the job. First thing I notice after start up was I had a choke. Cant imagine it having anything to do with the wire I changed but you never know. I can only think it was something to do with the battery been disconnected a certain number of times. I had disconnected and reconnected the battery for various things but seems this time it fixed the choke. Secondly the power drain has stopped. I believe some wire belonging to the alarm wiring which pass through the 7 core cable I replaced was at fault. After the fix I now have a flashing LED in the dash to show the alarm is activated which I didnt have before. Good site and good help although DrCranknWrench your last few posts have made little sense? Thanks

Steve, thanks for the update! Glad it turned out well and cheaper than expected (no new TB needed).

Electrical draws can be a pain. Not having the car in front of me, I could have spent days suggesting
things to check!

Best part is you got to know your car and improved your DIY skills!
