mine did a similar thing when the dual mass gave out as well.
If the flywheel is leaking oil , its stuffed.
How many km's has it done?

hey try checking your throttle bodies, myn was surging too and i had a gunked up 2ndary throttle butterfly cleaned it up and ran sweet after that, also check the acuator hose that runs into the 2nd butterfly isnt leaking air/vac.
