Exclamation 02' VR6 problem with shifting... please read

i drive a gti vr6 2.8L and lately i have been having problems i thought was caused from cold weather but it has warmed up and the problem consist.

When i shift from 1st - 2nd and so on... in btwn. each gear there is a big lag when i accelerate. almost like the car jumps. the tach light will go up with acceleration and then drop and then go up again even with consistent acceleration. Like the car lags behind when i need to go fast. i never had this problem before... and i hate the dealership closest to me... they are not friendly

i thought it may be the fuel injectors so i put some RXP and the problem has not been as bad but is still there. the car is only 3 years old now and i wouldn't think the fuel injectors would go bad... or could they?
any suggestions?
