@OP
What are the actual fault codes?

Would be interesting to see what they are.
Can do for you when I'm in Oxford next time, unless you fancy a trip to Worcestershire....

k

There may not be any  :sad:

You need to do a few 3rd gear runs and log a few things like boost, fuel injection, maf values etc

Equally I would take it back to the company and ask them to look at it; maybe even put it back to standard (DPF still mapped out obviously) and see if the issue still exists

Thanks both.

After I posted I took it back to the place where I had the map etc. done. They plugged in the VAG com and there were no fault codes. He then read and wrote a new map with some tweeks but it still does it.

I will probably look to see if I can get it back to its original state with the DPF mapped out as you suggested Rhyso :)

Also, itavaltalainen - thanks for the offer :)

It seems like its going to be one of those annoying problems, that could be something so small and annoying but could cost a few ££ to find and fix! 95% of the people would say its fine, but I'm one of those people that won't rest until its fixed!  :evil:

Does it do it at any speed / gear?? Part throttle? Full throttle?

More so in 3rd gear (mainly) and all the gears above.. its when I put my foot to the floor it will sort of cough / judder two times and then power through..

Part throttle its okay as far as I know.
