Started getting the limp mode and actuator bank 1 code earlier this summer... I'll need to do something about it soon. I ordered the electronic chips that seems to be burning out on the board... now I need to order the replacement gears before I tear into it... But I'm wondering if I should just pull the actuators, and check them out before going further...

Worst part is, I sent an email with picture of the codes and a problem description to my dealer, they said they never seen that problem. Even they're master machanic seemed puzzled and suggested that it might be something else...! This is probably a load of crap but worth saying, some dealer just won't help. Also, the warranty extension that seems to exist in the states, don't seem to exist here in Canada...

Side note, is there any canadian dealer who carry replacement gears? Or they need to come from Ebay or Great Britain?
