On start up, RPMs climb to 2.5k and hold for 20-30 seconds and then drops down to normal. Back pressure spitting up oil around the oil cap.

Plan was to get it replaced today, but got busy at work and didn't have time over lunch to head over to the shop. Maybe tomorrow..

Quick update: My issue with my cold starts is still an issue.

My RPMs are still Rising/Dropping from 1k to 2.5k for about 30-45 seconds on a cold start. Problem seems to on the throttle body, which I had a local shop remove it for cleaning on Saturday.  

Cleaning did not clear the issue, and only seemed to make it worse. Seems like the the throttle body is going fully open on start up. Its throwing a CEL and the error is cold start "somthing, something" error.

Even worse the guy who pulled the TB out noticed oil leak from the turbo. 

I lifted the tiguan once home and sure enough there is slow leak from a gasket on the turbo.  

More fun times ahead
