Modified throttle body?

Post by willsie01 »

We have an ongoing problem with intermittent hesitation on a 2000 1.2 GLS.
Today, a mechanic friend of my son says he thinks it is due to the throttle body and harness as he believes there was a modification introduced by Vauxhall to fix our problem.

Is this right?

never herd tht before lol try the mass air flow meter i had the same problem with mine and thats what it was.
OFFICAL DVLA DATA:

735 - corsa gsi's currently on the road and 436 SORN
Basicly you would have to be a right tw*t to break one for parts :rant:

I've changed the air mass meter and all the sensors trying to sort the problem. Only things left I can think of are ECU problem(?), throttle(?), fuel pump(?).
