    check O2's and EGT's...mine did that and it ended up being an EGT that was only throwing a code once in a while. Now the EGT's are deleted on my car, so they can go f@ck themselves lol!

          coils was the problem on mine, but that could've been a problem before. EGT was audi's next recommendation for a similar problem with mine as well.

            Boost leak test the car and scan for codes with VAG. I'm betting on a boost leak or dead EGT.

              Like everyone else is saying it sounds like the EGT's, I had identical symptoms when mine were going and I never threw a code.

                    ^^They rarely throw a code, but frequently die

                      I would check for codes with VAG. Not to undermine what Ryan is saying, but IME EGT's usually throw codes when they die, but not always. Also do a boost leak test.

                        No offense taken, I was pretty sure mine were toast, but I never got a code

                              Sometimes it takes 30ish km's before the code appears, but it usually does appear eventually.
