    Why, when you saw the message "stop oil pressure engine off see owners manual" did you think it was ok to drive it back home. You potentially had no oil being pumped to any of the moving parts. The engine will have done several thousand revolutions & the turbo several hundred thousands in that 3/4 mile drive home, all with no oil pressure.
    Check the oil level, if nothing shows on the dipstick add the correct oil until it shows on the stick. Start the engine, but if the oil light remains on for more than a few seconds turn the engine off. I suspect the level will be ok.
    If so, don't try restarting the engine. You will need to get the car recovered to your VW garage & hope not too much damage has been done. Otherwise a replacement engine will be required.

    If you are pre 07 it will indicate the pump has failed, I asked VOSA about it and you have to contact trading standards about it, it's not set in stone they can do anything, but fwiw I agree VW should be picking up here.
