guy at advanced is a parts salesman, not a tech.

i would address the power loss first as it may be either the throttle body or the pedal sensor filing.

if i were you, i would go to a real shop and have them verify any failure. a code never identifies a bad part, just a failed system.

what are the odds of all those sensors failing at one shot??? not likely. thats why you need a real diag as one code may cause other codes to appear.
