Summary:  We establish a Taylor asymptotic expansion of the spectral action functional on self-adjoint operators $V\mapsto\tau(f(H+V))$ with remainder $\mathcal{O} (\|f^{(n)}\|_\infty\|V\|^n )$ and derive an explicit representation for the remainder in terms of spectral shift functions. For this expansion we assume only that $H$ has $\tau$-compact resolvent and $V$ is a bounded perturbation; in particular, neither summability of $V$ nor of the resolvent of $H$ is required.
