Mine did what I described a couple times. Took it to the dealer, no codes and nothing wrong. They suggested changing gas stations or it could be because of high humidity.

My car used to have very loud knocking at times under boost, or what sounds like a loud knocking anyway. Hasn't happened since I went catless. I suspect possible cat issues and / or loose turbo --> DP bolts. Happened more often in the cold, which makes me lean more toward the latter.

Could also be having fuel pump issues. One of the local guys I tuned had An issue similar to that. Upon logging, we found out his fuel pressure was dropping substantially right in this powerband. What kind of plugs do you run?
