Same thing happened to me Saturday . Christmas tree time: Engine malfunction, emissions, DBC, Start assist, DSC, FTM . It did happen to me in the past, but a restart usually solved the problem. Not this time though. Started the car a few times today, the warnings and reduced power remain . When it says reduced power, it's no joke, could barely get to 60mph .
Sort of lucky it happened now though, my car comes off warranty at the end of the month. Hopefully they'll flash the car to the latest software . I already had an appointment at the dealer for next Monday. If it is the throttle actuators, I certainly hope they no longer are on back order, I have a track day on July 9th... |

Just want to add this happen to me too '08 Dct. Throttle actuator seems fairly common on the forums but not so in real world as the workshop i go to says it's the first they encountered. Seems to be a leftover problem from the S85 v10?

I had a Q7 4.2 S Line that I loved so much. About 40,000 miles an oil leaked developed and everything went south after that. Needless to say I lemoned it and didn't look back since. There were times I wanted to keep it but it just kept going back to the dealership to get more work done right then I knew there is no way I'm going to keep the car after the warranty expires. |

So 2 weeks for you, it was 3 weeks for me. I am wondering why this part is on back order all the time? Maybe because so many M3s have this problem?! Lol
