Default EML - error code P0221

Afternoon All,

I’ve been intermittently getting error code P0221 when the car is first started after being left overnight. I get the EML, ABS and ECS light up and the car cannot go above 3k rpm...basically limp mode. If I turn it off/on a few times it disappears and drives as normal.

A quick google search suggests this is the throttle position sensor. Are they all the same between part numbers for the FL S8?

Also where are they situated? I’m guessing somewhere near the throttle body area because they’re Fly by wire right?

I’m trying to get hold of my mate at TPS to find out the cost but he’s AWOL hahaha so if you have an approx idea please let me know too.

Thanks
Rich
