I’ve ordered one of eBay mate. £35 comes tested and with 30 day warranty so not bad. Should have it by Tuesday. Will report back once fitted

Thanks for your help mate

Good news mate! Literally always something that needs sorting on these lol but that’s part of the fun I suppose.

Interesting!  I reckon the pedal potentiometers develop a dead spot, which the ECU can work around up to a point.....and then throws a code when it can't.   I think in VCDS you can plot the pedal movement in the graphs section.  You will see if there's a dead spot with that.  Same thing happens to in-tank fuel pumps.  Sometimes you can whack the petrol tank with a hammer, which will jolt the motor onto a different part of the commutator and hey presto, it starts!
