just unplug it to check it. if no chenge plug it back in.  mk3 8 v & 16v engines will run ok without lambda  there just a bit better on fuel with it connected

misfireing will more than likely be ignition based.    2e or agg

if agg hav a good look at the lead from the cranck position sensor 
all the VW's have gone bar 1.
