Default P0300 and P030x

My car just started getting these codes. It feels the car hasn't changed much in terms of feel...

I scanned the car a few times while driving to work and the code seemed to jump around to each cylinder.

I did a search and I couldn't find a real answer to these codes. Are these codes just something built TT VQ's have to live with?

Yes. I have a non built motor w/ tt's and get them every once and awhile. Don't clear them out and they will reset themselves and stay away longer.

very common in the tt world. we have a problem with these codes with turbo timer installs due to the sudden switch from the turbo timer that causes a misfire code.
