Default Anyone have their Intake Manifold Runner Control replaced - TFSI common issue on VW?

After 4 days from having the I3 ECM update performed, I had the following codes thrown and the MIL stuck on.

012599 - Intake Manifold Runner Control: Basic Setting not Completed
P3137 - 001 - Upper Limit Exceeded - Intermittent

008196 - Intake Manifold Flap; Bank 1: Stuck Open
P2004 - 008 - Implausible Signal - Intermittent - MIL ON

The dealer has to order the part. According to Bentley, it looks like a lot of work. They have to remove the intake manifold and the fuel rail, replace the runner motor, and recalibrate the sensor.

I get a free loaner. I wonder what it will be - hmmm....

Default I just got this too

P3137 - 001 - Upper Limit Exceeded - Intermittent
P2004 - 008 - Implausible Signal - Intermittent - P3138
P0642

They ordered the motor which is on backorder.. maybe I should have let them keep the car and get me closer to the lemon law... this car has been back at audi 6+ times in the first year..

hopefully all the stuff that would break, breaks early.. i couldnt imagine paying for all these defects once warranty is up.

good luck everyone!
