2000 VOLKSWAGEN GOLF with 85000.0 miles

Error code P1128. Many of the vw 2.0 engines get it and end up changing many parts. Then after they change the whole intake does the problem go away. Something should be done about this because this isn't poor driving or poor care for a car its poor quality. I should not have to spend 1500 to replace such a thing on a vehicle that's known to last forever.
