On a 90 20v there are a bunch of earth wires on the bodywork near the bonnet release handle/ under the dash. I guess they would still be there on a B4 tdi?
I would have suspected the switch/stalk, have you tried contact cleaner spray?

Yeah the stalk was one of my other avenues as my friends mk2 golf had problems with his lights not coming on turned out to be the stalk switch contacts been dirty

Is there water getting in anywhere, from my own experience i can tell you that if moisture gets to the cable i can cause the indicators to flash intermittently, and even cause the brake light to pulse a little...

Alternatively the problem could lie with the relay
