To remove


1. Remove the engine cover.

3. Unplug the connector.

4. Remove the upper screw.

5. Remove the solenoid (not available as a separate spare part).


To fit

Fit in reverse order.

Spray the connector with Kontakt 61 contact cleaner (part no. 30 21 763).

Important

The throttle body will go to mechanical limp home mode when the limp-home solenoid is removed. After refitting, the limp-home mechanism must therefore be reset as described in "Resetting activated limp-home mechanism".
