Lumpy Idle issue

Timing set wrong after chain change? I have a similar problem. Just did chain and tensioner on I got power loss and lumpy idle. I can see with VCDS mine is out :/

Nah this was happening long before I did mine. How did you get yours wrong then? It's bloody hard to get that chain on wrong?

ChazGTI:
Well the issue has become more apparent and its clearly the DMF. Sounds like a box of gravel when pulling away, almost disappears when pushing clutch pedal down at idle.

ChazGTI:
Can confirm that most of this issue was down the DMF. My Crankshaft pulley also seems to have play in it which makes the belt tensioner panic at idle sometimes, which I'm investigating now.
