28BD Throttle valve, closing spring check: Malfunction
R60/R61 Stock Problems/IssuesDiscussions related to warranty related issues and repairs, or other problems with the OEM parts and software for R60 AND R61 MINI Cooper and Cooper S MINIs.
Problem only got worse. A MIL code finally came on and the throttle is hesitating during acceleration. I ordered a new throttle body and gasket from RockAuto. I will keep you folks posted as to how it goes.

Did this fix the problem. Having these issues right now. Thanks
Yes it did fix it. Air box had to come out. Pain to reach. Hand tight on the three mounting screws works just fine. There is a toque spec but after following it I realized as long as it’s hand tight and you don’t break the plastic you’ll be good. I don’t rember the spec. The one I ordered from rock auto is the same one as you get from Mini. Just different vendor and a third of the cost. You’ll need a torx set. Good luck
