Lumpy after driving fine, won't idle!
 
Hello everyone!

I've owned my Porsche for around 6 months now, I've driven it long distances and never had this problem, however...

I drove about 40 mile round trip with no problems, parked in the garage and when I came out to my car, it was running incredibly lumpy, when I took my foot of the accelerator pedal, it would die and not hold idle. An engine light has come on and it sounds like a tractor...

Here is the YouTube link to the video: https://youtu.be/yBRr5NlnlSY any ideas would be greatly appreciated in helping me fix my car! :)

150k miles on the clock, new clutch and DMF recently put on, never had any problems before now!

Sounds fine to me.....if it was a Harley or a pro stock drag car. You should find out what code the car is throwing before running it too much more. On the bright side your exhaust has a nice sound to it.

May be a stuck variocam actuator. How is it at higher revs?
