    Code Interpretation Needed

    Last week my car went into limp mode and all the control messages popped up (SEE PICTURE). I also ran a diagnostic and pulled these error codes (SEE PICTURE). I have done extensive research and from what I have found its likely the idle actuator. I have a couple of questions. 1. Can anyone look at these codes and say for certain that it is in fact the idle actuator. 2. Is there a comprehensive DYI on how to replace them? 3. Also, does anyone know where and why these things fail. Can they be fixed. 4. The best I have bee able to find so far is $579 each. Any help would be greatly appreciated.image2.jpgimage1.jpg

    I’ve seen the diy on the m5board, just google it and the repair kit can be purchased on eBay for around 200$.

    Thanks, do you think based off what I posted that it is in fact the actuators.
