It can fail in several ways
Posted by: TxRS (814) on 2014-12-08 12:53:01 In Reply to: 2nd posted by jstahmann on 2014-12-08 12:35:19	Share \| Report

A bad sensor (one for each bank) , a broken flap arm, flap obstructed by carbon buildup and a vacuum leak.

There is a test for these in VAG-COM. I'll have to dig up the link to the procedure. It's really simple if you have access to a VAG-COM cable.
