Welcome to the Forum, Martin, and congratulations on your C4! 
As recommended by Vetteman Jack - you will find lots of great members and helpful info in the C4 sections. I would suggest addressing your concerns in C4 Tech The more information you can provide will help, (how long have your had your car; any changes to your car before the problems began; are the issues present all the time or only if the engine is warm; etc.).
Best wishes for an easy and inexpensive fix so you can enjoy your ride; and, remember - save the wave!
