TPS sensor is reading low voltage causing a wonky idle. Anyone encountered this problem? I've heard that OEM goes for $500+ or the alternative are the crap China brands that tend to break.
So this is my safest route to go?

dont even waste your time with aftermarket tps's. i dont wanna say that their "junk" but they are definitely a far cry from being anything requitable. Save yourself the frustration and buy oem. Also to add, the problems you are describing is definitely going to be your tps. they are finicky little bastards and when they go out, they reek havok on engine idle.

k-tuned and hybrid racing parts are legit. If you can calibrate it (not sure if works on stock ecu, should tho) it will be cheaper to just replace that instead of the whole tb.

I'll take your broke tb if you do replace it tho.

My buddy has a brand new acura rsx s throttle body/tps sensor that he will give me. Is it possible that it will fit?

It's the sensor itself not the TB =/

His TB ended up missing the TPS sensor lol... So what are the options? Buy that billet one for 150? Look for a used TB with a sensor? Any other suggestions? Anyone have a TB lying around with a working TPS sensor for sale?
