I would recommend changing out the throttle body position sensor first to see what happens. Like I said it's cheap and easy to replace. That way you cover the cheap fix first before getting to serious. |
The 0221 error code is actually the throttle position sensor in your gas pedal, not the throttle body itself. Pedal is cheaper and easier - TB under the hood is not so much.
I agree, throw the cheaper part at it first.
