Some new slotted & cross drilled rotors took care of most of that problem for me!

Default Steve - You might want to check you N75 valve. If it is on the way out, you will see that problem.
also. It will also trigger the soft limp code i refered to below.

Default Well..that is possible..it is at the dealer now...
On the way to the dealer I had about 10 lbs of boost..it came up from the less than 5 I had yesterday. Lets see what they come up with...being an intermittant problem..the N75 is definitely a possibility. Thanks.

it's so tough to say without Vag logs. But that would be my speculation.
