Just over a year ago, I experienced much as you described with my 2015 GTI, but symptoms popped up slowly. For example, reverse became increasingly difficult to engage until I could no longer. This happened over a two or three week period. I ordered a new TOB, clutch disc, flywheel, and main seal. It was worth it to me to replace everything. One thing to note is when my clutch on that car is healthy and working properly, I can hear the TOB make a tap noise when I put it into neutral. That went away when my clutch went south.
