You have to start with a fault code read using a diagnostic system. Print out the codes stored and then clear them. Run the car again and see what codes come back and compare this to the first read and then deal with the codes from the second read. It could be something as simple as the coolant temperature sender but this does not always come up on a code read so its output must be checked in what is known as Measuring Blocks.

thanks Crasher ive spoken to the garage across the street n he seems to think it could be electrical problem he says he spoke to a guy who he knew does diagnostics but he couldnt help as he neva had the equiptment to plug into my car cos of the age its just frustrating

Well it is a pretty safe bet to say it is probably electrical, if someone put a gun to my head and said guess mechanical or electrical, I would go with electrical. There is more than one garage around, look in your yellow pages for a VW specialist and take it there.
