yeah the tps on the 2005 are bad in case you guys dont know....mine just went all of a sudden and would intermittenly put the engine in failsafe but would not throw a code for a month....if your idle is dropping really low to the point of stalling when you are coming to a stop the tps is to blame...the one i got from some online ford parts store was about 70 bucks...and its the 3rd gen tps for these cars..its looks a little different and built better...but be warned bc when you take the the old one out, the screws are tamper proof and will break off inside the thread....i had to bring my throttle body to a machine shop so the guy could get the screw out for me...
