Faulty throttle body, CEL & ESP failure
I´ve had some serious problems with ESP failure & CEL. In the beginning it was very random and only CEL came up and it was just fine, not any other problems than light on dash. Then it started acting up more frequently and now it has both ESP & CEL, it has no power, revs just 1,5k. It does not go away by restarting...
Codes:
C1174, C1024, 066, 046
My tech first replaced gas pedal, but it didn´t make it any better. Now they are saying my throttle body is faulty, cost for replacement is 1000€.
My question is:
Is faulty throttle body common problem for C32?
I remember there being some service bulletin for TB wiring harness, i asked my tech to check it, but he said everything is fine with wiring.
Should i try to play with wires or just replace TB?

Problem fixed after the engine wiring harness replaced.
