1. check for dodgy earths to clocks, make sure there is a braided earth from back of head to one of the coil mounting bolts.
2. check the over-run cutoff valve, black n grey plastic thing behind airbox. mine started to do this, swapped the over-run and it was fixed.

Dont suppose you got VAG part no plz dude??
