P2015 - Intake manifold runner position
P2008 - Intake manifold runner control circuit
P0456 - Evaporative Emissions System - Small leak detected

None of these are urgent, just annoying. And common problems with Audi's and VW. P2015 and P2008 were likely due to a software/sensor glitch, and did not necessarily require a replacement throttle flap motor. P0456 could be due to loose gas cap, but also was likely caused by carbon contamination from the evap cannister. I have all 3 codes on my 06 passat, and just live with them. I would estimate around 1000k conservatively to track down and fix from dealership.

    Of course I meant 1k as in a thousand. The dealership could really take you for a ride if they wanted to on these.

All of the codes reported here are covered under an extended warranty issued by Volkswagen. They realized that parts of the EVAP Emissions System are failing long before their "fail by" date, if you will. If you are the original owners of these vehicles, you should've received a letter from VW explaining that they are covering this issue for an extra 10 years, after the 3 year 36,000 warranty expired. Investigate this, If you spend any money fixing these issues VW will reimburse you. They have reimbursed me once. Then, the second time it occurred they replaced several parts costing me ZERO. Hope this helps.

2006 volvo xc 90. Code p2419 and p 2401. I have these code. I have already tried pump. But code come right a way

From a website:
http://repairpal.com/check-engine-light-with-code-p0456-684

The Check Engine Light may illuminate with five EVAP system related fault codes stored. Our technicians tell us this is generally caused by a faulty EVAP system pump module, which is an integral part of the charcoal canister. A revised canister is available to correct this concern.

Check engine codes

P0456 = small leak in EVAP system. First check the seal on the fuel cap and if the cap is installed well. When ok, check the rubber EVAP system hoses, which pass the rear axle, they tend to dry rott and start leaking.

Code P0456 on 2003 Town & Country

Below are the possible causes for your engine light and error code:

Possible Causes:
  • EVAP fuel tank or canister vapor hoses leaking or damaged
  • EVAP system component leaking, fuel cap loose or missing
  • Leak detection pump damaged or leaking

The fuel cap is probably the most common cause of this problem. It's considered part of the emission system and if faulty or not place on the filler tube correctly, it will throw an error. Best of luck with your engine light issue. Take care!
