The intake manifold on the 2.0T TSI (Picture below) is a very common part to fail.  When your intake manifold goes bad on your engine you can expect the fault code P2015.  The fault is for the Intake Manifold Flap Position Sensor which is only available with the whole intake manifold (Found Here).  This failed often enough that VW extended the warranty on this manifold.  The warranty extension applied to most 2.0T TSI engines and covers up to 120k miles.  You will want to contact your local dealer with your vin number to check if your vehicle applies (only do this if yours is bad, they won't replace it otherwise it is not a recall)

This part may also fail causing boost and or vacuum related faults.  This would happen if the intake runner control pops out of the manifold causing a vacuum leak.  This would also result in a rough or poor idle on the 2.0T.
