I have read every post in this thread!
I have the exact same problem on 1998 Golf tdi ALH Manual . I Change coding to 00001 Automatic and car doesn't have this problem anymore. Will i have any problem if i drive like this with coding for automatic transmission ?

I ran with that coding for a bit and the only problem I had was with the cruise control. With the A/T coding the clutch switch input is ignored, so if you have the cruise control engaged and press in the clutch the engine revs up! You will need to get into the habit of touching the brake pedal before the clutch pedal if you have the cruise control engaged and need to change gears.

I don't have cruise control, for now evrything is ok, i drive with 00001 coding.

You can't, you need a tune. Nothing in VCDS you can do will alleviate this problem.

You shoud try replacing the starter first I had the same problem and it ended up being that the starter wasthe problem but first make sure you have a good battery

If you have manual transmision, You should try to change coding in vag com to automatic, go to 01 engine - login with 01283- recode to 00001

Today, friend give me this starter and i want to put it in my mkiv, is it compatibility with mkiv?

This seller has three different wiring sets for VAG engines. It depend on what kind of engine coolant temperature sensor your car has. All you need to do with these wiring kits is to just plug them in and that is it.
