You don't mention if you are driving a turbo or not. If you are check the turbo hoses carefully by removing them and inspecting for any thin spots. You will probably find they are leaking especially when under boost. The same thing might happen with a normally aspirated engine but it is more crucial with a turbo. Its a shame the hoses aren't available from anyone but the dealer (be sure you know your turbo make) cause they love to charge an arm and a leg for them. The only good thing is that you can fix it yourself.
