132712, Problem with my car studdering while driving
Posted by GsNewbie, Dec-17-10 03:38 PM
Sometimes I will get a studder in my car while driving and I am thinking it is my throttle position sensor because thats the code its throwing. Sometimes when I am accelerating my car's rpm's will jump and then go back normal. Anyone got any input in this, trying to fix it asap.

Happens at different levels of mph not just one, An sometimes happens when I am bearly giving it gas and it happens most when I push it more then half way or so.
