P1565 is "Idle Speed Control Position, Lower Limit Not Attained"
My reference doesn't show anything for P1579.
What size engine is this? Why were "adapting" the throttle body?

OK, i found something, it looks like when fitting a throttle body it must be re aligned and the ECU supposed to "Adapt" the new throttle body in its configuration, easier said than done for me, as i have never done this, you may have to contact VW for the procedure, i will look into it a bit more, but it won't be for a bit now as i have to get off to work again, may be rivermikerat may be able to have a look into it as well in the interim.

From what I see, it requires the VW VAG Scanner/Programming tool.
