There are two parts to the Drive By Wire System. The throttle body which is at the engine end. The tracks wear inside and that causes all sorts of issues. The other end is the pedal end. This potentiometer translates your throttle input into a voltage and sends it to the ECU which in turn determines how much movement is in the butterfly of the throttle body thus increasing fueling/air etc...
Your diagnostic sheet mentions DBW issues but fails to say exactly what the errors are. Without specific codes it is a stab in the dark.
And yes the upgrade to contact less on the engine end throttle body is well worth the upgrade. There is also a pedal sensor which replaces the pedal potentiometer. Contact forum member Davy83 for more detailsz
Well some good news, after getting onto the dealer, they said they would send the actual report through so I won't be punching in the dark…..Should clear quite a few things up I hope.
Will PM Davy for some info shortly!
