Throttle actuators

Dereli · 07-18-2022, 03:04 PM

Hi guys
Can anyone guide me to a place to buy throttle actuators for my M3 e92, I know I can just buy by my local dealer but maybe someone know a cheaper place?
Btw I am located in Denmark.
Thanks in advance.

Fun times. Bank 1 just took a crap so I just might replace both.

Nah.

Seriously, nah.

Contact @BOOF-M3 on the board here and he will beat any price and ship ASAP.

FCP Euro. Free lifetime replacements.

While I get nearly everything else from FCP Euro, I feel like the throttle actuators from rebuild - through Boof-M3 and BE Bearings from Student Loan were better sourced here.

Ugh .. still going back-and-forth deciding which TA's to get (remand, rebuilt, vdo, oe). Leaning towards vdo.

I'd like to replace both so price is factor.

I do not gain anything from referring members to other members, like I am not referring you to an alt of mine, but at least contact Boof. See if he can make you happy.

It is just my understanding that they are lifetime and bullet proof. Plus rebuild will replace a failure same FCP, only they send you back a higher quality product.

Like I said, at least get a quote from him, it may help you decide. It did for me.

Being in Denmark, have you checked with Schmiedmann? They generally have competitive pricing on new BMW parts.

Dereli · 07-22-2022, 06:05 PM

Yes i have checked with them, they are a bit pricey.

Bmwdoubles_ · 07-23-2022, 12:32 PM

If price is a thing these look pretty cheap with a core return. https://mpowermotorsports.org/produc...tle-actuators/

Was able to swap on two new TAs so that's good news. Took a quick drive and all was well.

Soon after, i got p0368 code (sensor b, bank 1) and Service Engine Soon light. Forgot but was able to make that connection at front, bottom of plenum. Took a drive and all seems well but Service Engine Soon light is still there.

Does the Service Engine Soon light go away eventually? Is there a way to clear the code?

Thanks!
