Sounds like low compression.

Compression test it first to see if that is actually the problem. I'd also read the codes.

Could be the cold start sensor in the water cross pipe under the inlet manifold

Check for fault codes stored in the ECU first.

Sounds like a sensor problem, the DENSO ECU cold start routines on the Bug are pretty good ...........
