I no longer own a TDI
No probs 4 me yet, but ain't it part of the pedal assembly? (Wireless Rheostat). Would probably be a relatively E Z fix.

The throttle position sensor IS part of the pedal and you have to change the whole thing. Easy job 3 nuts and a wire connector to remove. About 80$ from Impex.
