I havent posted here in a while but I have a feeling i will be a regular in short order.
I have an 06 Envoy Denali and have had various issues with what I will call electrical problems. (ignition switch changed twice, gear select sensor, some solenoid that prevented the vehicle from shifting out of park, PCM re programmed, ECU Reprogrammed, cam sensor, some gas pedal sensor, and a few other items that I cant recall just now).
Anyway, vehicle has 65k and in the last 2 weeks has been displaying an egine light. Now after driving more than 5 min, it will go into limp mode with traction control turned off and a second larger engine light appearing. Dealer says theres 6-7 different codes (I dont know what codes yet). Extended warranty is paying for most but dealer is saying i need a new throttle body. I have enver in my life ever heard of any vehicle needing a new throttle body. Extended warranty said they will not pay for a new one either ($560). WTF!?!?
I have had the throttle body cleaned every 20k by the dealer (based on how frequently the topic is brought up here) and now they say I need a completely new one. Have any of you ever needed a new one? What causes it to get so dirty/caked up to begin with?
With my wife out of work atm there is no way i can afford this. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
