Strange thing happened today. Had a couple of weighty passengers in the back of my car (which is extremely unusual as I typically only ever have one sitting in the front). Was on a national speed limit road which was quite hilly and I was driving somewhat spiritedly when I floored it in 3rd gear around 3k rpm up a fairly steep hilly incline section. The car initially pulled hard followed by what I can only describe as a stutter or boost/fuel cut. I lifted off immediately and then reapplied and was there was no issues. It also did not exhibit this behaviour when going on the flats or less hilly sections.
I have been trying to diagnose a rough idle past few weeks which has led me to changing the PCV breather hose, performed full boost leak test and just yesterday I had brand new spark plugs and coils changed. Whilst this has all helped slightly the idle isn't great. Could a bad fuel injector cause the issue I experienced above?
Obviously uphill there's more load together with passengers in the car, I also thought it could be clutch slipping.
I'm running full stage 2 software and DSG map. I have the 7 speed dq381. Never ever noticed this issue before until today when car had much more weight onboard. I scanned the car with OBDeleven no fault codes.
