03 Y61 TB48 Throttle Body issues / part number and couple of questions
Hi Gent's
If anyone flicking past this thread that has ever had to replace their throttle body for an Auto TB48? (mines 2003 running LPG/PET) could you please shed some light?
A6119-VC21D seems to be the only part number I can come up with... The one on my rig is almost getting to the stage of being a paperweight, keeps tripping into limp mode now and again more than often with much use between but recently more often last trip into limp was Aus day on the beach out of all places after being parked up for the arvo of fishing so the car was back in the shop today for its service and to troubleshoot the throttle body and mech cant find any issues with cabling etc.. been looking at a couple on EBAY plus the listing on Patrolapart as no wrecker in Perth that the mech called has a second hand unit for sale so I'm looking at new one and feel better doing so as I know there wont be any issues for a while :).
Surely Patrolapart has it sussed?

I hear Nissan like to charge $1300+? the + depending on the time/heat/wind direction of the day?
I would prefer to source one locally in Perth if the pricing is not far off (not with Nissan if the above line is true) however first and only call I was able to make this arvo to my most frequently used parts store where they normally have it sussed in a couple of seconds but I was asked for my VIN and I didn't have it on hand so one question is my VIN really required or is A6119-VC21D the one I need as its the same on all the years 09/2001 to current? Supplying the VIN is not an issue but cant spend a lot of time on the phone at work calling around.
If sourcing one locally drags out or price is way up and beyond I will more than likely look to PatrolApart, I have already sent a request on availability and shipping charges so waiting to hear back.
My other question's are has anyone ever had any luck fixing a throttle body with P1122 code? I tried searching the forums but can't seem to find any definitive answers other than people end up buying a new unit .. I'm obviously no mechanic but find it hard to believe that they are not serviceable after all i presume the fault its only in the TPS unit attached that you cant purchase separate? I am also curious if this is linked to a dead or spot or what feels like lag in the pedal when putting around on petrol however it doesn't happen on LPG, I previously assumed it was due the car being tuned more for the LPG? but the more i think of it the TPS could cause this symptom or am I getting my hopes up with the thoughts of a new unit fixing this too?
I did get a hold of one of those OBDII Bluetooth adapters and Car gauge pro on my phone tonight and it works fine although so far the ecu hasn't stored any fault codes but It was only a 10 min drive home after the service and I'm not holding my breath.
Thanks in advance legends!

Feel like a hammer or gimpy and letting loose is the solution at the moment!
Hi all so the throttle body was swapped over and all was sweet... until just earlier this afternoon I went to jump in and whip down to the shops and BAM engine light and limp mode wouldn't want to type the words that came out of my mouth!! Plugged the ELM bluetooth adaptor in loaded the app and P1122 and a new code P0134 so looks like a possibility of $975 down the drain... before this the car had been sat at work all day and then drove maybe 40 to 50 Ks before parking it up, was running aircon and the temp was supposed to hit 40 or over this afternoon.. so any way I reset the codes and it came back... few resets later and it didn't come back so went for a 10 min drive shut it down and started it again and no codes... the new P1134 code is 02 sensor as shown in the pic... not sure where but recall reading that faulty 02 sensors can trip P1122 don't know why it would but I'm open for any ideas then again I hear 02 sensors are not cheap either ? Will try find time tomorrow to view the live data on the 02 sensors but last time I looked the voltages up and down reading correct and they were changing over from rich to lean as they should however many times they should in whatever time frame it was.
Only other thing for the p1122 code i can think of is maybe the throttle reset/relearn procedure was not completed with the new throttle body install and I've tried a manual reset with timed key turns that have been posted on the net but doesn't seem to work and thinking this really is a consult job?..
Anyone really familiar with the 4.8's in the northern suburbs of Perth ? Starting to think its time to get someone who really knows what they are looking at to get stuck into it. Would only really think of Nissan at a last resort $$ wise and the thought of them wanting to replace everything in sight scares me just like the throttle body I just had replaced that it appears it might not have needed replacing.
Getting bit frustrated with it at the moment... getting close to regretting buying this one.
