Arrow VW Polo Classic - BELGIUM

Hi all,

I moved to Belgium last year and got a VW Polo Classic, which doesn't exist in the states. I recently read online that it's actually assembled in China and exported all over the world - which probably explains a lot of mystery problems I've been having

This time it's stalling.
Couldn't figure it out so I took it to the dealership where they couldn't diagnose the problem!!!

Anyways, it stalls and the engine may die, especially when it's cold.
At idle speed it appears to drop a hair below normal idling speed.
It stall out especially when the AC is on.
Once the engine is warm the stalling stops almost entirely.
It seems to be worse on uphills: I'll give it some gas and it won't respond but as soon as I get to the top of the hill it just takes off like normal.

Could it be something simple like the fuel pump?

First off, I am jealous, I want a damned polo.

Second, what year is the car, engine size etc..

I am thinking a vacuum leak of some sort possibly.
