Sounds to be a loose or corroded wire/s at either starter motor or at battery fusible links.
Also check the earth strap (Cable) between engine and bodywork.
Hope this helps, MMP

have the output of the alternator check... and perhaps the battery posts may need cleaning as well.

The fault you are getting and with dealers recommending replacing the throttle body, it sounds like you have a defective engine wiring harness. I have seen quite a few of these. usually we will put a throttle on the car and then recommend an engine wiring harness if its not fixed. Not the best way to diagnose a problem but its almost impossible to find a fault with a multi-meter or an o-scope.It does not sound like the DME (engine computer) has failed but it could be a possibility. Also if you adjusted the throttle cable when changing the throttle. you will end up with the same faults. I recommend taking the car back to the dealer and being patient with them. this isn't the easiest thing to fix but most bmw dealership will take the time to make sure your vehicle is fixed correctly and will help you out any way possible

You should make sure you have proper charge for sure.has your battery gone dead lately? I know on some of them digital climate controls will act exactly like this and have to be reset or go through a setup sequence.

"EML" is an acronym for "Elektronische
Motorleistungsregelung". Loosely translated from the original German for the BMW
owner means Electrionic Engine Power
Control.
"EML" is BMW's system name for electronic throttle management. The "EML" system, in it's most basic sense consists of an accelerator pedal (with an electronic position sensor), a computer module (usu. integrated with the main engine computer), and an EDK (Elektronische Drosselklappe or Electronic throttle valve). The EDK is also known as a "drive by wire" throttle. "EDK" throttles use a computer controlled stepper motor rather than a purely mechanical linkage (usu. metal cable attached directly to the accelerator pedal) to control the opening and closing of the throttle plate.
"Drive by wire" throttles are very common
on modern vehicles starting in the late nineties up through the present day.
"Drive by wire" technology enables very precise throttle control to improve
drivability and vehicle emissions, as well as many convenience features like
electronic cruise control, traction control & stability control.
BMW first implemented "drive by wire" in very limited quantities on the most expensive & sophistocated BMW models starting in 1988.
The latest generation of advanced vehicle
features to take advandage of "drive by wire" technology are radar guided cruise
control, accident avoidance control, autonomous-driving, and autonomous-parking
systems.
