I eventually decided the map sensor in the car was to blame in my case, and took the pipe off that leads from the intake to the ecu, and it was clogged with crap! I couldnt clear it so I replaced it with a silicon tube and flushed the map out with wd40 (only thing i had) and so far, no boost cut or limp mode!
It usually dies at a fair tilt uphill in 4th, at the same spot every day.....tonight it never broke stride all the way home and no codes, unlike usual 000575 etc.
Woot! It could have been many things, like vac leaks, n75 bad, vnt sticking, intake sooted, egr passing, and sooted up exhaust turbine. I tested everything one by one that I could, and when I found oil in the map tube, I knew from working on industrial instruments that causes bad readings on any pressure device. Hopefully thats it, but anyone having tdi boost or limp problems, gimme a shout, I learned a lot this week
