What you point out is the electric throttle.

It's very loud. Is it possible there is a soot build up? |

You could always remove the module and take look...

Just had it plugged a diagnostic machine and is showing as faulted/jamming. So looks like it need to be changed £89!

It's easy quite easy to remove it if you like to get your hands a little dirty.

Problem solved, new throttle assembly fitted. Turns out the plastic gears have stripped in the old unit

The only way I could see a repair is new gears. They have mainly worn down from close inspection, a couple have snapped. I am guessing it should not be as oily then? The loud noise I heard would of been the gears grinding. |

I recently experienced the same problem on my 2008 FL2 TD4 92K km and had the incredible screeching sound as the butterfly valve was jammed, and the electric motor chewed out the main wheel. I interrogated the engine ECU and the fault code data returned via my Blackbox was:

Being an electronically controlled injection system, I believe that there will be no "run-on" as the ECU will cut totally the fuel when powering off, but it will be a bigger engine shutdown shudder. |

If that is part of the electronic throttle body, did it affect the running of the car in any way? I would have thought the missing teeth would have made the car less responsive to the accelerator pedal. Poke it, Poke it, make it do it again!!
