could be the isv (idle stabilisation valve), take it out and soak it in petrol over night, worth a try ands sorts it out 9 times outta 10 lol

oh and winding noise could be worn brake pads or disks, friends 3 year old car needed new pads last week!!

Just thought the mk4 doesnt have an isv, its all done in the throttle body, clean that then dry it out fully
