As I mentioned before...there are a few pattern failures on these cars.
First off the MAF causes lots of MIL 'on' codes and the CTS (Coolant Temp' Sensor) fail. The new CTS are now Green instead of Black

Then the fuel tank cap...hangs open so the tank pressure EVAP check fails.
The fuel canister/pipes and hoses crack and split. Roll over valve fails too.
Called Gravity Valve by VW.(# 1J0 201 752 $15.00. #6 on ill' 201-15 ).

There are two hoses for the crank case fumes, that run from the motor to the intake trunking just prior to the throttle body..these split and collapse. Difficult to replace and only $90.00 each !

You may need to inlist help from shop with smoke machine.
