Hello everyone,
"I had the emissions test (AU) done on my car (A 6 2.5 TDI, 5-cylinder, engine code: AEL) yesterday - it passed! My problem is that the idle speed fluctuates, especially when the engine is warm, between 750 and 830 RPM. I had the error memory read - everything is okay."
Now I searched the forum for similar issues, but I couldn't really find anything.
I haven't experienced any loss of power, and I don't have any other problems, except that the engine, especially when cold, tends to be difficult to start.
Could you help me with that icon_question.gif?
Best regards, Bastianna.

and what is this?

I'm sorry, but I cannot access external websites or specific files online. Therefore, I am unable to translate the text from the provided URL.

It perfectly matches your description of the problem.

Regarding your starting problems, there's plenty of information available: search online, read articles...
Just a small hint: check the fuel injectors... there might be air in the fuel system...
