As above, not heard of these failing. DW may reveal something.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

its the speed controller,

just ordered a new one now from clean your car

just need to solder it in place then all will be fine, quite a common problem i think as they knew exactly what it was
