Hey guys
Ok so yesterday I was driving and seen VDC, SLiP and SES light all go on. I didn't think much until I hit the gas and it didn't go anywhere! So I coasted on the side of the road, turned my car off, put it in drive and it wouldn't accelerate. Turned it off again, let it sit for about 5 mins, turned it on and only the SES light remained on. I was able to get home, but I was sure nervous about it!
Anywho, I got the code scanner and it pulled up the P2135 code about the TPS. I did some research here on the forums and it seems like it could be the throttle body or possibly the pedal sensor.
Well I called my local infiniti dealer and to see if they had any recalls. They had a pedal sensor recall but she said it was for the M series. Go figure.
I am going to get it checked out by my mechanic and if it is the throttle body, what do you guys recommend? The same Hitachi one that keeps failing? Or should I go aftermarket like A1 Cardone or Napa or Standard? Any suggestions on what brand throttle body?
Thanks!

 

Well I went ahead and got a Techsmart brand and it was brand new. Had the Hitachi logo on both sensor and throttle body.

Went to install, didn't take long at all. Now everything seems to be worse. Car actually killed on me, idle is all over the place, causing my car to shake. I followed the relearn procedures exactly. Did it numerous times and still cant get the bad idle out. Could the sensor be defective by any chance? Or the relearn procedure failed? Its really annoying that you cant just replace the tps and be on your way. Makes me want to ditch all these new cars and go back to a 90s version.

Anyway, any ideas?
Thanks

 

I'm having the same problem with my 2003 infiniti G35 sedan after I cleaned my TB it's been idling alil high is there's any other way to fix that ?

 

The best way is it to get the OEM / Hitachi . And it could be defective. It happened to my G35 with the crankshaft sensor I had to get OEM and now it runs like magic lol
