Just a guess, but I would say Boost Pressure Control Valve (N249) :)

Faulty MAF could be the cause too :undecided:

If the MAF sensor is what i think it is, ive been at it already gaz, bought one didnt make a difference!

Sounds like my problem mate - I've been told it's a faulty air intake pipe. My engine management light comes on and off.
Does the power come and go on yours?

Lemme know what he says would ya? I've been quoted hundreds by VW to fix it. I've been discussing it on the threads but I think I'm gonna use it as an opportunity to tune mine up a bit.

God bless credit cards!

I seen your other post re turbo intake pipe fault? thought mine had the same problem, but topher put me in the right direction. Have you run diagnostic on yours?

Yes at VW so I know that's what the problem is. Just need to decide which is the best part to replace it with, and what else to add at the same time!

mine does this. the turbo isnt as strong as it was :undecided:

i did get an error code a few weeks ago about the maf sensor. I did change the dump valve and cleared the codes as that came up as an error too. Now im thinking the maf needs looking into?
