![Question](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
My accelerator sensor is bad, and after some searching, here is what I discovered:
Part 012 542 33 17 is a "lower cost" replacement for Part 011 542 8717.
My car has the "lower cost" replacement - I guess it went bad before. And now it is bad again.
Q: Anyone else with this problem?
Q: Is this a DIY job?
Help is appreciated.

Hi.. I know it's been a while but I wanted to know:
How did you figure out that it was a potential replacement!?
How did you know it was bad again? by codes or "feel"?
Thanks!
