Exclamation Anyone here have to replace Throttle Body or TPS Sensor?

I might have to try and get my dealer to replace the throttle body and Throttle Positioning Sensor to help cure an idle and acceleration problem I've had for almost 2 years.

anyone have this replaced?

Ronin is an unknown quantity at this point
hey Pharoh, I thought you got this fixed last year? There was a TSB that you used and everything and I posted as a sticky (it's not a sticky anymore though).

Did the problem just come back recently?

No, it started back up again and it's gotten worse. the TB/TPS sensor is the only other thing I see being able to correct this.

I wonder if you took your throttle body off and cleaned it out good if it would help. You replace your fuel filter?

Haven't changed the fuel filter yet. I had a look in the TB and it was really clean.

Makes me wonder....my dealership, as great as they are with me, have been toiling over this for 2 years now....I take it to the one down the road from where I work and it takes him 5 minutes to suggest the TPS once he finds out the IAC was changed.
