Bad air oil separator (aka PCV valve) causes check engine light and code(s). (It's been a while and going off memory)...

Oh, my problem appeared some time after having removed the intake manifold. It was severe enough to stall and required a tow. The HP fuel rail has a pressure sensor attached to it. I had not fully inserted the connection (which I found after getting a PIWIS 3 clone read the code and tell me that the sensor was most likely the cause). Opened it up, pushed the connector firmly, heard a click, and after the required (J/K) facepalm to the head, all fluctuation went away. (I eventually replaced the HPF pump unnecessarily)...

From watching the two clips I can't tell that there is anything wrong. Yes sorry if I wasn't clear I do not think you have a PCV valve issue, (unless you pull a code indicative of it). Maybe clarify what issue you are having. (Ours would stall, and I guess it eventually shook itself more and more loose that the stalling got worse)...
