VDO OEM Throttle Valve Actuator - E9X M3 S65

Product Details

The E90/E92 M3 throttle valve actuators are one of the few problem areas on the S65 V8. They fail for a number of reasons and when they do, the car will revert to limp mode with poor engine performance and fault codes. In some cases you will have fault codes for the throttle actuators before they fail completely which is why it's important to check for codes regularly (even if your SES light is not on). Because the internal electronics are often at fault, the entire TVA must be replaced. The replacement is straightforward and is not invasive to the engine (if you can change spark plugs yourself you should be capable of replacing the TVAs).

This is an aftermarket VDO throttle actuator with a two year warranty for the 2008-2013 E90/E92/E93 M3. There are two actuators in each S65 V8 (one for each bank) and we strongly advise replacing both to avoid duplicate repair costs.
