Mate what engine size is it.
If it is a 1600 then the throttle bodies somtimes need cleaning out and reseting.
This will reset the idle motor.

this is the same with alot of older vw engines throttle bodies get full of breather vapour and slighlty jam open the throttle, will need cleaning and basic settings doin, another favorite is the coolant temp sensor, would place my money on the t/b seen as its a lady driver

Mate the 1.4 have the same problem with the throttle bodies need cleaning out. come to think of it all the VW suffer from this problem. would do this 1st as it will only cost you time and a can of carb cleaner.
