I Need a new Throttle Body??
So, my 2006 GT simply stopped working yesterday. Push gas pedal and zero response. Brought it to dealer-- turns out I need a new Throttle Body.
OK fine. Any ideas on how this happened? The car is only 2 years old.
Only mods are 4.10 gears, 91 octane Predator tune, CAI intake (which I recently oiled, then the car was running great).
Would overoiling the CAI filter cause this? Because the car was running great for several weeks after the oiling.
Thanks in advance...

What would a GT500 TB do for the performance of the car?
As far as the warranty goes, the dealer said it was covered. I thought for sure they would give me a hard time. We'll see, I don't have the car back yet.

My car went into "limp" mode aka the dreaded wrench light a little over a year ago. the dealer blamed my SC, so I found a mod friendly dealer and had Ford roadside assistance tow it for FREEand it was fixed for free as well!
The TB's are known to fail.

I thought it still had to be tuned as well?
