35i limp mode + codes

My 35i went into limp mode today. Check engine light flashed up and idle went very erratic, bouncing by about 500rpm.

About 5 minutes earlier I'd parked a little close to the kerb (perpendicular), and as I pulled away I heard the underside of the bumper catch/scrape. I immediately heard a rattling as I drove down the road, and a plastic hinged flap had flipped down from the undertray. I clipped it back in and all seemed well.

5 minutes later, limp mode, rough idle and codes. I initially though it cracked one of the intercooler pipes or something else at the bottom of the engine, but all seems fine.

I left it for a couple of hours, and it drives fine now (full power) but I still have codes.

from torque-
P110D (Current Fault)
P11AA (Pending Fault)
P1362 (Pending Fault)
P1365 (Pending Fault)
P1368 (Pending Fault)
 
Cleared the codes with Carly, for some reason torque wouldn't do it.
Its running fine now, no engine light or codes.

The primary code relates to the TPS, so I've ordered one.

No idea if this is the real cause. I'll probably just mark this down the the seemingly unreliable design of the 35i Z4.
