2000 BMW 540i check engine code: 1174?

[Turboj]

Hello guyz, could anyone out there explain this code 1174? I got some info that it means "Binding or dirty throttle body; Failed throttle body" Can this be fix by using a throttle body cleaner?

If no one has answered before tomorrow, i'll have a look at work and see what i can find out at work tomorrow.
Don't get much call (if any) for throttle bodies in my experience - having said that there is a first time for everything.

A few things you could look at first.

Also, we've sold 2 throttle bodies in the past ~6 mths for E39's nationwide (unsure which model exactly).

Hope thats of some assistance.
