Could it be the accelerator pedal beginning to pack up - fly by wire technology, although I believe that the computor goes to idle mode if the pedal is faulty - also Car Mechanics article was saying that you can't test the pedal but replacements are quite cheap HTH

DL,
did you ever sort your problem out...I have the same issue 1996, tdi 90. the issue is intermittent......worse I think when cold (the engine not the weather)
also, from cold, if you rev the engine up (3500rpm) and let off she almost stall , sits there and stumbles, I would around 600rpm but the clocks still show 900/950rpm..weird...

The original problem sounds like the transponder pick up. Yours sounds like a different problem.
What miles, when serviced, belt changed etc ? Have you had it on the diagnostics ? Does the glow plug light come on and go off ok ?
