First I'd like to thank the couple of people who helped me with my overheating problem. We just replaced the radiator fan and now the bigger fan spins and I definitely notice a difference (i.e. the fan doesn't stay on anymore after I turn off the car, so it's not getting as hot).

Anyway, can someone help me out with these codes? What might be the problem and where should we start?

Thank you so much.

The problem is with the throttle body. You need to register your copy of Vag-Com to go further.
To do a throttle body adaptation (TBA), go to engine (02), then basic settings, then block 60. The TBA will then be done.

Before that, try using a throttle body cleaner to clean up any grime that is in the throttle body. Do not use carb cleaner.
