You posted in the wrong Forum. This one is for 2012+ Beetle's with 2.0TSI engine.

Post in a the correct forum and you may get some answers.
But since I am already here. Did you have the car scanned for codes? If not you should and let us know what those codes are. Autozone usually does that for free.
What engine do you have? I assume it's a 2.0 engine. Could be the ignition coils. They are known to develop hairline cracks and start failing. Also check your plugs and wires.
But first I would have the car scanned for codes that will help narrow down your search.

Good Luck!
