Just curious as I'm not sure I'm experiencing any kind of abnormal issue as it seems like something the ecm does after idling for long periods of time.
I was in the humongous car was line up the other day and while I was idling waiting for my turn the car would idle a little rough for 30 seconds, then return to normal. Happens probably every couple of minutes or so after idling for 20 min. I've noticed this a few times ever since I've owned the car.
I'm assuming its just some kind of mode the ECM goes into to reduce carbon, or clear out the EGR, or who knows what. I've also noticed it spools up the turbo after sitting at idle for around 5 min which makes sense from a keeping the VNT system free and clear standpoint. I would have data logged it but My VCDS was at home at the time.
Couldn't find much after searching, just curious if i'm the only one that's noticed.
