Vibrations in A 92 Audi 100






          I am new to the Net and the group and greetings to all before I 
          seek your advice.
          
          I have a 92 Audi 100 V-6 with 33k on the clock, regularly 
          serviced under warranty (which has now run out).
          
          The car has been plagued by vibrations at idle, whether hot or 
          cold, since the day I bought it new.  Sometimes the vibrations 
          are so strong that they can be felt in the passenger seat but 
          they are always strong enough to be felt in the steering wheel 
          and driver's seat.  No dealer has been able to fix it -- some 
          deny the problem exists, some claim bad fuel, some say deposits 
          on the valves...etc.
          
          The car also suffers from sharp drops in RPM when I start off 
          cold and shift from 1st into 2nd and a clutch takeup which is 
          somewhat sudden.  Both problems seem to disappear when the car 
          warms up.
          
          Appreciate your suggestions.  Thanks.
