Requesting help with codes

Hi guys,

I'm hoping someone with more knowledge than me can help tell me what this might mean. I'm getting a slew of warnings from the dash (DSC, Engine Malfunction, Increased Emissions, Service light) and limp mode every time I drive the car, usually right at start up but also once a few miles after clearing the codes.

This also happened a few months back. I tried rebuilding the throttle actuators with Odometer Gears, which seemed to do the trick - no codes until just now.

These are the codes I'm getting with my Carly Adapter:

1. Motor Control, Engine/Motor

- Electronic throttle control: check start 0027A1

- check at lower top 002B57

2. ABS/DSC/Brake, Dynamische Stabilitaets Kontrolle/DSC

- Engine torque is not adjustable CAN 005E19

Based on what I've read here on the forum, my suspicion is the actuators again (presumably the electronics). I hate to outright replace them if the codes could be pointing to something else - any ideas? I'm not against taking the car to the shop/dealer, but my fear is they will simply start a costly process of elimination. Thoughts regarding this logic are welcome as well.

Thanks, as always, for the help.

Thanks, vsix!

I had forgotten about that feature. I just sent a report, so hopefully they can shed some light on the situation.
