[Rough after 5 minutes then burning smell. +VAGCOM]

Hi

Can anyone help?

Car runs fine for the first 5 minutes, then goes rough as if it is a missfire. There is a burning smell that then comes along, plus smoke/steam not sure which.

Have plugged it in to VAGCOM and it is saying 00533 - Idle Speed Regulation- Adaptation Limit (Add) Exceeded

I believe this is the throttle body and I have tried cleaning in while it is still attached, but obviously can't do a fantastic job. Confused by the burning smell though and the fact it will run OK for 5 minutes.

So can anybody suggest any other ideas? or am I just going to have to bite the bullet and remove it.

Got any tutorial for doing this, can only see 2 bolts, there must be more?

was just about to sell it when this happened, sods law and all that :-#

thanks

Stu
