Possible - so not sure about this - could be an air hose blockage.

Check all the small diameter hoses around the inlet manifold, there are a few! And go to different parts.

Take em off one by one and blow through them, also check to see if ther are any splits in them.

Get your codes checked by a VW garage (or one that has correct code reader)

Then you'll know wots wot saving much head scratching and many a wasted penny.
