Was there ever an outcome to this. I've just been informed that there is a 1.8T TB that will fit the GTI and I'm very interested

Item number: 350007552955
Doubt he would sell the TB on its own

the BCB engine code and 1.8T throttle bodies are different.
I could maybe see the BCB one fitting, but not the 1.8T
Anyone with ETKA on here should be able to get the part number for the BCB item
