I've had something similar on an A3 ARY engine - I'm wondering if it's MAF related?

just fitted the new coolant sensor after finding out it was faulty the car seems a lot smoother now and doesnt hesitate when accelerating all in all cost me 33 quid from the dealers for the new sensor the seal and the clip hopefully no more mishaps
