   ICV - Remove the 3 torx bolts holding it in and give it a clean with carb cleaner.
   
   Map sensor could be a problem but the only way to check is to put another in its place and see if that remedies the problem.
   
   Don't rule out the green temperature sensor aswell as I had this issue on a 106 GTI and replaced all of the above in that order and it was the last one (temp sensor) that remedied the problem.
