Hi,

Yes, this is normally the case if you remove the original TPS position. I have this issue when I got my car too.

I've also changed the TPS but couldn't get the correct position and the car is still choking. Ended up I have to change the whole Throttle Body with the original TPS attached.

Better to change since it is so cheap. Otherwise, you will ended up wasting time and money. It is very cheap that you get RM250. Maybe because it is SVT. I changed mine including labor RM500 BLT.

Seek advice from Sifoo Levin818...or give him a call if he's not replying to this post...

If you can find someone to recalibrate it, of course it will save you a lot of money. Try to seek for sifo levin818 help first. If still can't get it right, you should know what is your best solution.

I had this problem with me for almost the whole year before I decided to change the whole Throttle Body. That is the easiest way I guess. I didn't trade in. Just leave the old Throttle body at the workshop and let then taukeh take care of it. hahahaha....

And you don't have to take the whole thing out for the calibration. Wish you luck bro.
