New-TB fallout
I have noticed that after having my TB replaced - as the old one would not
perform adaptation - revs do not drop sharply when lifting the accelerator
pedal. This is particularly annoying when changing gears in my manual
tranny, as it is then nearly impossible to perform a smooth change because
revs are still higher than they should be on declutching.
Any ideas on how to revert to the old behaviour?
Also, since this is putting a lot of unnecessary stress on the clutch, I
feel it is wearing out faster. Any ideas where to get a good clutch -
hopefully better than stock - and prices?
Any comments appreciated.

Nor does mine mines been like it since I had the car, especially
noticable in traffic. Maybe the timing is now out a touch?
Mines in the garage at the moment, due to linkage failure Audi quoted me
£3000 + Vat thats over $5000 to replace the gearbox, its in a transmission
place at the moment and having a new clutch and linkage, should cost £1000
max
