my car had the same problem, followed your advice, replaced throttle body module and then it runs like a charm, thank you for posting this video, and of course all praise to God!

Dude you don't know how helpful this, no one could find out what's wrong with my 2011 jetta, after 10 months and over 30 times in the shop and 9k later I find the throttle body is cracked and everyone overlooked it, gonna be doing it myself

I have a 2012 Passat just like yours, and it’s throwing the same code. Ordering a new throttle body, and I’ll let you know how it works out. 😉

My 2013 Passat SE 2.5L had the engine light coming on for weeks at a time then going off for weeks for about a year. Checked the codes and indicated O2 sensor bank2 (rear). Kept driving it and finally the EPC came on - and the limp mode. Being told it's prolly the throttle body TPS causing the O2 sensor to go off? Also told that what causes this TPS fail is the PCV valve - now integrated into the valve cover - that goes bad and allows oil to accumulate inside the throttle body and into the intake manifold.- causing the sensor to eventually fail. PCV valves used to be a $20 item. Now they want like $500 for the valve cover with integrated PCV valve. Have quotes of $2k to replace all this stuff including a $450 estimate just for the throttle body and installation. They're even quoting $460 for the O2 sensor replacement! This is a $30-40 item on AMZN and the Throttle body is $60-90 on same! O2 sensor is literally just ONE bolt holding it into the exhaust pipe and an electrical connection you plug in! Man these guys WAY overcharge,..

What do you think about the quality of the throttlebody you installed? I looked at getting one that was an OEM replacement and several of them are $400 plus. Is there a real difference?

What kind of scanner do u have??

[@corybureau4124]

My 09 Beetle with the same motor is throwing P0122 as well, alongside with P0735. EPC light, ABS, Check Engine, and PRNDS lit up. Will only accelerate up to 20mph and wont engage into reverse. should i replace my TPS?

[@nieceyreed]

Omg!!! This same thing is happening to mf boyfriend 2011 Passat cc! He thinks it’s something else but I keep trying to tell him it’s the throttle body! I’m going to get the part and change it myself and see if it work!

I'm having the same issue with my vw passat 2012. Changed throttle body with no success. changed the accelerator pedal sensor with no success. The mechanic is saying it could be an ecu/ecm issue

[@adamenroute3800]

How do you find the reliability of the Passat in general? Do you still have the Buick kickin around?

[@warriorlax3502]

I know very little about cars and just did mine by myself. Thanks for the gasket tip as I ordered one of those as well. Great video-informative and a bit of humor in there too lol. I’m going to subscribe even if I never need another one of your videos or not-thank you sir!
