The issue
On certain BMW 528E vehicles, at temperatures of -9 degrees celsius and colder and a warmed up engine, water vapour might condense and freeze in the throttle houseing after a period of steady driving, causing ice buildup around the throttle plate. The ice may prevent the throttle plate from fully closing when the driver releases the accelerator pedal.
