Limp mode issue

So I had my e55 go into limp mode once or twice so I turned it off and back on and it went away then it done it again and was stuck in limp mode so I took it to the shop and they got me a new throttle position sensor and recoded car and problem went away for about 500ks but iv just noticed now when I take traction control off and even go to floor it the car once again says esp problem and goes into limp mode once again if I turn it off it goes away but it’s only happened a handful of times. This isn’t my daily so has been sitting for a couple months. Any ideas please

Punctuation is a wonderful thing and clarifies intention and meaning. You're going to just be throwing money at your car until you connect it to a proper diagnostic system and pull the codes. Place it on STAR/DAS/XENTRY or equivalent, read the current and stored codes, and then get back to us.
