Hi everyone, thanks for any help.

Car is audi a3 8pa 2008. with 1.6 BSE petrol engine 135000km.

Long story short, car sometimes jerks noticably when pressing or releasing gas pedal, doesnt matter how slow or fast. It started 2 weeks ago when driving steap uphill with loaded car. Now it doesnt matter if its flat or hilly, hot or cold, 1 day it jerks a bunch (like in a video), other days jerks a little only when pressing gas pedal but stil more than it should, and some days it drives totaly fine. Only solution i found that helps a bit while driving, if its jerking very hard, to drive it in 2nd gear to 5, 5.5 000 rpm for a 2,3 seconds, and than it gets better.

This car has some problems dating 2y ago when i bought it, basicly sometimes it shakes at idle but rpm is constant and no codes. We changed spark plugs, coils, coil wires, cleaned fuel injectors, replaced timing belt, water pump and battery. Nobody realy knows what is causing shaking, but now this is more serious problem.

Any tips would be very helpful.

Well, you've been ignoring the problems for 2 years so nothing is a surprise now.

Start out by have the codes read for a starting point.
