S203 270 cdi throttle position sensor

[NIck Lennon]

Afternoon.

Had the car in at a Mercedes specialist for an autobox fluid change last week and while on the diagnostic machine, they found the car had thrown codes up for TPS issues. I haven't had it long and hadn't noticed this but on test, the mechanic found that limp mode was kicking in when he booted the throttle. I've managed to do it once since so fair play to him!

Is the TPS - which is part of the accelerator assembly on these - coded to the car or can I swap it with a spare and plug and play?

Thanks, Nick

It's plug and play.
