    use whatever bosch, beru or equivalent quality plug is listed as standard fit from your preferred parts supplier, that'll do you fine.

    aftermarket diagnostics tools often dont work as they only support obd comms and VW has its own protocol

    you can use the freeware version of vcds-lite from ross-tech, for that you'll find generic usb kkl/vagcom cables cheap on ebay and some have the 2x2 -> 16 pin adaptor included if you need one
