Have you checked your pcv valve that sits left of the engine. take the dip stick out and if the car hesitates then the pcv is okay. If nothing happens it's faulty and will need replacing.

Nice  :smiley:

If plugs coil packs have been replaced the only other thing is a coked up cylinder head.

I replaced my plugs for no reason as the ones fitted were replaced in 2014 Jan and car not driven for 6-8 months but changed them as I didn't know if the garage had them replaced or faked a receipt as dsg oil isn't £38 for sure. I have ngk BKR7EIX plugs off ebay 0.8mm plug gap for £27 delivered so I'd go with those  :wink:

My old VR6 did this , it was one of the coils that was breaking down apparently , took VW a week to sort it !
