Engine revs drop and die
2003 A4 1.8T
Recently when i turn the car on its starts fine, the revs rise to a little over one, as it should, then the revs drop and the engine cuts out. sometimes the car engine starts fine, and others times it takes maybe up to three attempts. car was just serviced for 80,000 a few months ago.

RE: Engine revs drop and die
ECU is not getting a reading from the MAF. I had this happen to me when I tried to start the car with the incercooler hose disconnected from the Thottle body. Then I got a CEL... Try removing the MAF and cleaning it.
ECU= computer
MAF= Mass Airflow Sensor
CEL= Check engine light
I HATE WHEN I DON'T KNOW THE ABBREVIATIONS TO THINGS
