Check to see if the brake servo pipe which is black air hose is cracked which runs along the bulkhead (just under where the window wipers are) This is a really common fault with MK4 golfs and can cause the car to run roughly - it can also affect your braking. Either that or it could be your idle control valve is away (but i doubt it)

Good luck
