      There is a common failure of the bushing in the rear axle beam. Search for solutions here. It's about a half day job to pull the beam and replace the bushings with a Volkswagen substitution.
      Please do not power off, firmware update pending.....

      xy: front wheel suspected.

      Could be any combination of things. Worn out ball joint/tie rod end comes to mind. If one of those is about to let go, it's a serious safety issue (loss of steering when it fails).

      I am hoping its none of them, but its going to the shop soon, I also have a oil leak that I need to have fixed, its leaking around the valve cover, didn't notice the leak until my engine was smoking but it wasn't overheating so I started to look for leaks and found fresh oil right under the cover, also airbag light stays on and check engine light stays on

      Please post back when you get it checked. It's always good to know what the issue was for others searching the forum who come across your questions.

      Also: I take it you don't do any of your own work? EG: gasket replacement to stop the oil leak?

      Its the Catalytic Converter is why the check engine light is on, I don't do any of the work unless its something I can get to my self, its also showing a error code for the camshaft position sensor
