This is a common issue with the TFSI- get an oil pressure test done on the car asap.
I've had this exact issue with mine- changed the thermostat last week and afterwards it was idling really rough, difficult to start- turned out to be a crankcase breather pipe split at the back of the block, I must have disturbed it removing the Tstat- if you've had work done on your car...

From under the car, it's on the offside, front of the engine.. 3 bolts to undo, one of the bolts is a bit tricky to get at, I used a angled socket from memory.. An hours job including a tea break...
Sounds like your car is a B6 to me? ..
In any case, as has been said already, get it scanned for faults... but I would already be looking towards the diverter valve.. the extra boost from the re-map could have split the rubber diaphragm.. it's such a common problem..
