Welcome to the forum. :o

 

To be certain of where the problem lies, you really need to connect the car up to a laptop with a VAG-COM interface. They are a very useful diagnostic tool, and available from that well known auction site for about 7 quid, or a fiver if you can wait for one to come from China. You need the interface cable, a laptop and some software you can download for free - there's lots of info on here if you have a search.

 

In the meantime, the most common failure is the steering wheel airbag slip ring, commonly known as the 'clockspring'.
