Hi all,
Helping a friend sort his van, and thought before I go any further I'd check with you guys
Anyway van goes from driving normally to driving like a bag of spanners, which were erratic idle and won't rev beyond 2500 rpms. This was in the space of 2-3 minutes, so we get it code read, and it comes back with throttle position sensor intermittent. I've had a quick trawl of the tinterweb for a new unit (drive by wire jobbie), and it appears to be main dealer only. So couple of points I want to check, firstly anyone else had this unit fail, if so what were the symptoms, and secondly can I source a new unit other than main dealerships?
Thanks Jamie
