Sorry to hear that, I had to learn that about Modern BMW's too. Just not worth the headaches and cost.
*My update: Speaking of parts new & used, my whole rear end has been replaced, Hubs, Control arms, front & rear Brakes, rotors, Front & rear struts. MY Hatachi TB should be in today.

Todays update: Got the new Hitachi Throttle body in, topped off the fluids and after a battery charge she fired right up and ran smooth. Went into gear forwards & back...But I haven't mastered the TB Relearn evidently...nothing more than a purrrfect idle....
I did find the Horn relay in between the battery & the front. Haven't reinstalled it...
Is there a end all do it yourself Relearn procedure everyone recommends?
 
What do you mean when saying it went into gear forwards and back? Did you drive it at any normal speed, or did you do a simple test to see if the car would move in each direction a few feet? Not to be doomy, but having the car idle is the easy part. Once in "gear" and everything is engaged is where things can get tricky and it can be tough to figure out what's causing what to do something wrong. Again, lots of support components and sensors that can trip you up. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

The last relearn I did with my 2003 AWD I used the CVTz50 app. I believe it took two or three times before it completed successfully. Before that, in 2015, I just did what everyone else basically described doing and I didn't encounter any problems. I don't recall exactly what I did and where online I found the info, but the steps contained in the included screenshot seem familiar, and I do recall using my phone's stopwatch to be sure I got the timing right.

Codes are being thrown for both sensors in the APP sensor. APP sensor is wired directly to the ECM, which is located next to the battery. You found a mouse nest in the engine compartment and they really like to chew on things. I suspect the problem is probably broken wires.

Disconnect the APP sensor with ignition switch OFF and check for continuity to ground on Terminals #1 (gray wire) and #2 (black wire) with DVOM. Then turn the ignition switch ON and check for 5 volts on Terminals #4 (brown wire) and #5 (green wire). If unexpected results are found, you'll need to remove the air filter box completely and look for damage to the wiring harness.

Update: The new aftermarket APS part from Advanced Auto Parts was wrong, Drove a hour to South Bend, squeezed in 2010 and after a few hours of cussin & had a Part from U-Pull it for much less than the $390ish posted on some sites.
I was almost startled after doing the relearn once more & having it fire to life with a blip of the throttle!
Thanks so much all you guys & Cryo for helping me stay patient!
Tomorrows job: Change the tranny fluid & oil change.
Happy TGIF Guys!
 
Hey guys,
I just bought a 09 Murano and replaced the Accelerator pedal sensor and got no results.(I was told this was the issue) It doesn't rev up. Could this be the limp mode for low tranny fluid? I didn't check it. I did hear a loud whining when 1st started, I thought it was the pw steering pump. I did see where it looks like the Slipping icon warning light is on.
Its at an Apartment complex a hour north of me. it was under a carport and I was able to move it maybe 15 feel to replace the APS. But now it won't move at all or rev up at all. Any help is greatly appreciated
Mine doing this now what was the issue with it
