See the link to an old post which the OP got only the 2A38 error code and replaced the valvetronic motor.

Hope this helps, but if you're not a well experienced DIYer, take it to an Indy shop specializing in BMWs and have them check that.
Good luck. |
Thank you for that! I am as experienced as taking out my spark plugs and coils and I have ISTA installed and have relearned the end stops a few times and heard the whirring noises they describe, the motor might be bad or maybe something with the actual eccentric shaft somehow? Not sure if that could even get damaged at all??
