Dudes;
        Listen up. This sounds like classic symptoms of the dirty AFM
signal. It is so prevalent VW has a $100 " Wiring Harness Modification"
to cure it. Or you could do the $.59  capacitor fix. Search the archives
for details.
        While I was at it I grounded the AFM housing to the engine block.
It is supposed to drain static build up produced by the moving air.

Drive Safely & Good Luck
