TB and Intake manifold

I cleaned my TB last week which eneded in a high idle I can't seem to get rid of. Tried basically everythign except replacing it. I did ECU reset with 44+ hours of battery disconnect, Idle air vol. learn, etc. Nothing works. I guess I'll just replace it. Found a orger on here who has one for sale. It is the TB, IACV, Intake Manifold...basically everything from TB to Upper intake manifold. But it came off from a 02 6SPD while mine is a 02 AUTO. Is that entire piece same for both cars? Will it match up correctly? Nay help is appreciated and thank you in advance.

i knew one guy that had this problem, but friend at dealership reprogrammed the ecu and all was good. but the problem arouse after a force induction cleaning? or something like that, and the reprogrammed solved it i guess. If you got the hook up, you should try getting it reprogrammed if no one provides any useful info.

All you need is the TB. And yes it will fit(be fine) from MT --> AT. Sorry to hear the batt d/c'd did not work.

I was a lucky one

Are you sure about the IACV though

There seems to be a common problem with these cars - after cleaning TB the ECU throws High Ile RPM code as well.

The answer to this problem is

(1) reflash the ECU - dealer should max charge an hour of labor , no parts - this is to reflash the ECU to virigin state. Do not ask for resetting the code, this will not work for long. The code [and high idle RPM] will come back again fast. You need to ask to reburn/reflash the ECU to virgin state. If you have not upgraded you firmware to the new revision; may be do it anyways.

(2) Dealer can use the relearn function no their Consult II and reset the ECU memory for A/F mixture settings - basically this tells the ECU to forget all what it knows about the hostorical data and re-establish the baseline for TB/IACV settings

Your TB is fine

Best case = Free
Most likely case = .5hr labor
worst case = 1hr labor

varies from dealer to dealer.

i've heard dealers tell me that if you hook it up to a consult -II it's $80, period. hourly feels don't apply.

but when have you heard a stealership tell the truth?
