have you checked the diverter valve in the intake manifold? The reason I say this is because we had similar symptoms on our RS4 and it turned out to be 1 of the diverter valves was knackered. cost 25 quid to replace with S3 valves..... worth a look.

The diverter valve failure wont bring up any fault codes, it didnt on the RS4.

see how you get on, let me know what it is please:)
