Have you checked to make sure your spark plugs/wires are good? Might want to swap those iridium spark plugs for some regular NGKs. When was the last time you replaced your fuel filter? Do you have a datalogger for your car?
 
this was goin on in my 91 tsi as well i found that my reg ngk were running to hot and had to go with a 7 or 8 what i mean by 7 or 8 is the part number for the plug its like bpr6 something like that i got the bpr7someting and the seemed to correct the problem
