Ive been searching and noticed that I am having the idle problem that seems to be associated with the Dae Sung TPS. What I was curious to know is, im the 2nd owner with 90k miles, do they still have to replace it. And if so why, is it a recall?

its not a recall but if they dont know your the second owner then they cant tell you otherwise

its a tps which is covered by whatever warranty you have

if your the second owner you get a 5/60 warranty

They're not going to help you.

I have the Daesung TPS, and I'm pretty sure that's what has been causing my occasional high idle and sometimes too low.

I didn't expect much from my dealer, as they have never been helpful, but when I went in with the TPS info printed out, they wouldn't even look at it as a warranty issue. So now I'm going to look out for a Keifco TPS, ideally with a TB in the bargain for me to get bored out.

Has anyone here who is not the original owner successfully had theirs replaced for free?

Faith, sign me up. Seriously. As long as it's the Keifco!

I wish I had a good junk yard around here.
