I don't think its the hall though, cause it will pop that code out even when it isn't running. I emailed a dude with a VAG Com scanner in Wheatland WY so i'll probably go get it scanned after holidays.

Yeah pretty much, unless you ignore those codes.

Well that is the thing, i can only flash the codes when the car is off (i dont have a VAG scan tool) so thats not gonna work.. otherwise i would scan it while running haha.

Rotor and cap should cost less than $15. It would be worth that just for piece of mind. You might also look into the "Tune Up Kit":
