Hi,

I'm not sure I understand the problem. Do you mean there is an engine idle problem? Or is there something happening with the throttle body itself?

Let me know. Also, let me know if you have scanned the computer for codes and what they are if present.

One other thing... Let me know what is happening as far as drivability. For example, is it stalling, has no power, or is there anything that is happening?

If it is stalling at idle, take a look through this link and let me know if it helps:

Take care,
