this is the 3rd time its came on, Twice after i removed the Forge Spacer.

It should be your next mod. Without it you are guessing what the car is doing.

Based on your vagcom info, it appears it happenned at partial throttle. Could be a small leak. The ECU probably noticed too much boost and set the code.

Have you performed a TBA as well?

Sorry, I get stuck in acronym mode sometimes. A TBA is a throttle body alignment.

Use vag com to log how your boost is going. Go to the ross-tec website for a whole pile of info on it. I thought this was a common fault with apr on a dsg car though. Not dogging the apr I just remember hearing a lot of talk about the dsg throwing boost codes early on.
