Limp-home solenoid

To remove


1. Remove the engine cover.


2. Undo the lower screw (it may be difficult to reach) using a magnetic T15 bit.

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).

Tightening torque: 2.5 Nm (1.8 lbf ft)

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".
