Thinking I might need a new Throttle Position sensor for my 2001 K11, so I'm interested to see if anyone has had any luck with a cheap ebay TPS.
I've had a problem with a low idle when warm for some time and after plugging in my OBD2 scanner it was showing a TPS reading of around 7% at idle - I think I'm right that it should be around 10%, so it seemed that the TPS could be the cause.
Tried cleaning the TPS electrical contacts a few days ago, with CNC MAF cleaner, but no improvement.
This morning I went for a short drive and as I was reversing into a parking space the engine started revving very high - had to turn the engine off.
Connected up the scanner when off and the TPS reading was about 30% - after blipping the throttle a few times it gradually started to come down to around 10%.
When I started it up a bit later to drive home it was OK, but this seems like an extra reason to invest a few quid in a new TPS to see if it helps.
