    No I did not delete, isuue has not reemerged but now don't want to drive on motorway. Its can be dangerous depending when power loss occurs. How do you use cruise to bypass the issue please ?

    Car went in limp mode, on motorway, pulled over on a dangerous verge as no acceleration. Had the kit with me, came up as throttle position sensor. 10 mins later, started , all light gone and drove home fine. Read in another link someone cleaned it with compressed air.
