And the problems continue.......throttle body changed And has cleared the epc light :-), but when I started the car it's idling like a tractor :-(  starting to loose the will to live.......... Will scan the car later and see what new errors come up

Did you do a throttle body basic setting with vcds post TB install?

Prerequisites:
Ignition ON
 Engine OFF
 System voltage at least 11.0 V.

[Select]
[01 - Engine]
[Basic Settings - 04]
 Group 060
[Go!]
 Activate the Basic Setting.
[ON/OFF/Next]
 Wait until Field 4 shows "ADP. O.K.".
[Done, Go Back]
[Close Controller, Go Back - 06]


 Switch Ignition OFF.

Without traction power is nothing!
