Might help if you mention which particular model of VW you're referring to.

not sure what model/engine you have but im guessing its a petrol, remove the intake pipe on your throttle body and clean the butterfly with carb cleaner and a rag,put the pipe back on and try,it will take sum cranking until the cleaner is burnt off

There is a very specific cause of that symptom on certain 1.4 engines. Is there some point to your reticence to reveal the model and exact engine type - preferably by engine code.
