Default How many have changed their throttle body?

After gettingthe P2110 code my dealer confirmed what I found on the internet, that the throttle body is the cause of the coding and the stall that I experienced (while on the highway no less). They tell me there is a service bulletin indicating that the throttle body needs to be replaced, a $350 touch including labor. Anyway, I called Chrylser to tell them that I felt this was a safety issue and that I'm surprised it isn't a recall, especially after reading about how many have been having the issue. They told me there was nothing they could do as I am past the 3 year, 60 000 kms, warranty period. Yippee.

I am curious to know how many have changed their throttle body, as the dealer told me that some people just don't worry about it as the code only comes up in very cold weather.

do it yourself... since you are after your warranty, try to find an aftermarket one

I agree. They also make bigger TB's for a little boost in performance. I've never done it, only heard of it. Read up on it and it might be worth it.

I asked about an aftermarket throttle body in a previous post, I don't think there is one out there that is going to be any cheaper than buying an OEM one.
