Used Throttle Actuators

BIMMERPOST / Classifieds
Asking Price:
USD 300.00

Or Best Offer

Location:
✓ Will Ship

Item Interest
Currently undergoing the dreaded throttle actuator replacement. I have 2 new ones in the mail so my used ones will be available to ship later this week (1/25-1/26). Bank 2 is the one throwing a code. Bank 1 is completely functional and looks to be fairly new compared to Bank 2 (previous owner must have replaced it) That said, Bank 1 could be good candidate for the gear upgrade kit (https://www.ebay.com/i/182691301716?chn=ps). Only asking $400 OBO for both or $300 for Bank 1 and $125 for Bank 2. Also willing to negotiate shipping costs. PM for pics!

*1/23 Update* Throttle bodies are out. Was not aware before but the one good actuator (bank 1) was replaced before but not sure at what mileage. Bank 2 definitely shows signs of wear but the circuit boards look to be fine.

Hey buddy not trying to be a dick on your thread but the one that went bad probably needs a new circuit board. When my gears went both the boards were bad also which at that point you might as well buy a new one. Just letting you know so whoever purchases them won’t be upset. Bump for you!

Thanks for the heads up. Is there a way to check if the circuit boards are bad? The warning light came on once and its been parked ever since so I'm hoping the circuit boards are still in good shape.

127k miles. The bad TA looks like its been used in the car all its life and the working one looks to have about 30k miles on it.
