Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The car shut down into limp mode but resets when you turn the engine off (epc and traction control light come on). I had a mate scan it and found many errors, so he reset the errors and drove the car which had only one fault re-occur
"17579 P1171 Angle Sensor 2 for throttle actuator (g188), Implausible Signal"
So he sprayed some carb cleaner down the throttle body which clears it up but it keeps popping back every 20 mins or so.
I dont fancy the £700 + VAT and fitting costs so does anyone have any suggestions or know where i can source a second hand part?
Many thanks
Scotty
