First post - Howdy. I have almost the identical symptoms on my 02 Turbo Beetle. Cripes - Need to look at the plugs - 75k miles and never changed.
Not trying to make this my thread but I will throw a little of my data into the mix.
I get a whooshing sound also that comes from around the charge side. Inner fender coming off now to inspect.
I interpreted the Turbo in an out symptom the poster is experiencing to the transmission but the turbo fluttering sounds like a real possibility.
Will post more to this thread as I gain some experience with the problem.
