  • In this video i take you through a common issue with GM scan code #P0123 - "reduced engine power". I am no mechanic but I was able to replace this myself. In this video I do my best to walk through step by step on how to remove the throttle body and sensor and replace it with a new one. Do this yourself will save you a ton of money. If you are having the issue of #ReduceEnginePower #ServiceStabilitrak and Service Traction Control it is highly likely that the Throttle Body and or Throttle Body Sensor will need to be replaced.

    Liked the video. Also check the rear pcv valve back behind the throttle body. It gets clogged up and causes the engine to run rough and throw the oil into the throttle body.
    Hope this helps

    so when you were driving it and accelerate would it sputtering? when I drive mine and let off the acceleration and go to accelerate it would sputter do you think that's what's happening to mine? probably need to replace the throttle body...

Which has the sensor attached so you half to buy the package. Deal , they are asking almost shy of 300 dollars, so i am going to replace all the coil packs, milage is 76000 on my buick,i am also doing all the maintenance things for this mileage range, plugs O2 sensors,
    Oil to trans 😷 d, an transfer case oil
