I’ve had the car go into limp mode completely losing throttle. No codes. I was assuming the sealed throttle body or maybe my clutch causing the issues?

Thanks for the feedback. You ever done one? Difficulty level?

Bump

Drive by wire

It’s that sealed one

Replace it with a pioneer.- Bluetooth and the radio kit for 100 bucks. Easy diy

Wondering if anyone has had any issues with these sealed throttle bodies and what issues they were having if so. 2005-2008

They sell some at Autozone that are multicolored led strips you can easily install that also work with an app from your phone. Just ground the black wire to a bolt on the frame and under the driver dash you can tie in a red wire in the cigarette fuse. You can also ground and power off your...

hi I have a manual trans 2008 corolla s with over 200k miles. I bought it with 127k and I assume the clutch was replaced shortly before I bought it. There’s been a grinding sound that started up while driving that’s gotten worse and worse. It’s in all gears but not when in neutral but it’s...
