CEL came back to haunt me again
3 years back CEL was on intermittently when starting the car, engine is running, no response whatsoever from throttling, send in TCEAS, mechanic told me it's throttle body, serviced it, and the problem went away.
This year, few months back, felt the car underpowered, send in to TCEAS again, change spark plug & air filter, serviced the throttle body, power is back, much better.
But since 2 weeks ago, felt the engine have minor stuttering when idle, normal drive no issue, last week CEL was on when starting engine, no response from throttling again, have to try on/off multiple times until CEL doesn't lit up.
Back to TCEAS again the next day, diagnostic failed to find anything, just help me reset the error code. Mechanic also claim some connectors are loose and worn out, help me tightening them, and released the car
and yet today, the same shit happened again
Anyone of you encountered similar problems?
PS: Most of you will be questioning why the hell I use TCEAS for my old car, bcos my spouse works there, and have staff discount, and can screw them kau-kau if they screw up the service

Found the culprit, got Throttle Valve error codebut after few months...it will back to normal
it comes n go, comes n go...

could be wiring problem, or worst, Throttle Body
I suspect the latter
Throttle Body is damn expensive! RM4.5K!!!
will be hunting for recon/2nd hand parts, there's no oem version for this also
It's super rare!
