Help with DTC 17796

Hi, My car is a 2001 Polo 1.6 GTI ARC. Today VAG-COM throw me the following:

3 Faults Found:
16688 - Cylinder 4: Misfire Detected
P0304 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
16705 - Engine Speed Sensor (G28): Implausible Signal
P0321 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
17796 - Control Module Malfunction - DBW Throttle Monitoring
P1388 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
Readiness: 0000 0000

I used to have the 16688 as the cylinder 4 compression is lower that cyl1-3.

I've my Engine Speed Sensor change 1 month ago because of the code 16705.. however this come back again

And this time another 17796 which elsa tell me to replace the ECU

Any ideas. Should i check something before thinking of replacing my ECU

Thanks..
