 Ok, so checked with vag com this morning, turns out that if i run it as an administrator it works fine.
so, i had 3 fault codes stored:

17705 PRESSURE DROP BETWEEN TURBO AND THROTTLE VALVE (CHECK DV!) P1297 - 35-10

17545 P1137 - 35-10  shareware so no description

16514  P0130 - 35-00  shareware so no description

i've cleared the codes and so far this morning it is driving perfectly, I've heard about dv problems before with other cars - could this be the problem?

hi, breather pipes??

[jonnyturbo]

yup boost leaks are a pain

thanks steve_pd for that.

Well, done about 15 miles today including slow driving and the car has been faultless. i did take the dv off the inlet pipe this morning to see is it was leaking at idle but seemed ok.

Boost leaks do that tho fine one day not the next - keep an eye on it
