It will be the read coupler - but do the bush at the front while you are at it

WOW THAT IS BAD....
check under the rear seat... under the oval plate...
to see if the linkage is worn/broken etc...
its not a costly project if You can do it yourself....
probably not too expensive having a VW shop do it..
the small cheap nylon bush inside the tunnel is just a fiddly job
so, its not going to cost You much money....
