My car has had a longstanding similar fault since April that I am systemeatically working through as I fear that with VW ******* prices being as they are the car is worth less than the final bill !!
Go to frequently asked questions section on the forum and get a fault code read. This involves plugging a laptop into a socket under the dash near the steerering column and while a dealer will charge circa £70 for this you could get it done for less at an indepedant. In the meantime you could look under the bonnet for split rubber hoses - the smaller ones tend to rub against the engine causing malfunctions and the resultant 'limp mode'.
Hope this helps a bit :Blush:
