Find where the module is located.
Look for loose - not fully home connectors - loose wire in connector - loose connector pins - esp female connector pins - disconnected wires - damaged wires.

A code could show because a connector has been disconnected.
A related connector may have been disconnected and a code is now showing.
Reset/delete the codes - scan again - see if the codes come back.

The sensors are linked to modules - some modules are linked.

On the 2011/2014 Mk 7s the RCM is linked to other circuits/modules.
Changes to the Mk 7s occured in 2011. The Mk 7s were made from 2006 to 2014. The 2006 to 2011 may/might not be the same as the 2011 to 2014 Mk 7s.
2012 MK 7 E 5 100-350 3.5 XLWB RWD Duratorq 2.2L CR TC 14 DSL 100/125 PS
Was DRRB 74 KW 100 HP 100 cv. Now CYR5 125 HP. PCM could still be for 100 HP. Siemens Continental fuel system.
