and a delay in response at highway speeds. had the 105,000 mile service damn near on the mark. it’s been well maintained as far as regular general maintenance. the dealer service manager is telling my cousin the Throttle BODY needs to be replaced. no mention of tps sincere or the app sincere. my research shows a significant difference price. should I try changing the sincere first or could it be the actual throttle body.

its my cousins car and i was helping her with a flat when this topic came up. the maintenance light (same as oil change light) was on. could be time for an oil change. not sure of any codes. i just have some doubts about the throttle body being bad. i have a hard time trusting the dealer service dept.
