Hi,

Mini N14 2007 / 140kkm
Engine throws out faulty Throttle position sensor no other, lacks power in lower revs. Starts up without problems, in lower RPM range engine is noisy, exceed 2-3k rmp - drives smooth. Possible also VANOS or would it throw error code ?

it would likely set code if VAnOS were an issue. I would inspect the throttle housing and connector.

Curious about a few things: What would you describe the noise sounds like? When was the last time the timing chain and tensioner was replaced? What is the exact P code that is being thrown? When was the last time you did a carbon clean up?
