Default Need help Engine misfire !!!!!

hi everyone,

I just got a A4 stick shift with abt 77000 miles on it is a 2001. I have a couple of problems when I open the throttle in neutral the car wobbles a bit but if i continue the gas it sort of settles down does this have anything to do with misfire???? also when i accelerate in 1st gear i hear a weird kind of noise but it becomes alright as soon as i shiift to 2nd or up can anyone plese help me with this thank you.

the twist is ok, it's jsut the way the pistons turn. as for the sound i have no idea wut ur talking bout. u should go drive ur car sum more and maybe a better description will pop up in ur head, that's how i usually do it

if you got misfire you should have seen check engine light flashing, if u not sure if u had any it’s always good idea to start from scanning for codes. i wouldn’t drive that much knowing my car misfires it might coz more problems… have it checked…
