  1. If you watch the first incident around 6:00, you'll notice that RPM wasn't even 6000 when it failed. I would guess some wiring is a bit loose and with G-forces combined with suspension shock, some electronics gets unhappy. If you scan the control units, you'll probably find which part is have intermittent short to ground or open circuit.

  2.  @nathannsxmarques9110  Well spotted! You can see a disconnected wire hanging by the shoe on accelerator pedal at 6:46.

  3. VW engines are way overengineered for the internals.
