Hi guys.
I have a 2006 bmw m5 which i replaced the bank 2 throttle valve actuator with a brand new one, and im still getting "bank 2 throttle valve actuator failed" codes come up and my cars still in limp mode. I cleared the code but the car still stays in limp mode.

Any idea on what could be the problem?

Maybe try swapping actuators over to see what happens? Then you will know for sure if the new actuator is DOA or not.

And are you sure you replaced the correct one?
