code questions

Car went to "limp" mode. Dlr said it showed p1120, p1221, p0461, p1431, p1571, and p1631

They fixed p1120 & p1221 (for $1,000) and "cleared" the others.

What are the others and do I have a problem on the horizen?

Also, was I ripped off at $1,000?

Thanks, dave

Sounds like a shot gun fix. To replace the TAC module and TPS sensor. To have both bad at the same time is rare. Think about what are the chances that you break two things at once. The TAC module can say that the TPS is bad and its actually the TAC module, saw this first hand. You got your old parts right. I would bet that it was a bad TAC module but not a TPS.

is the car stk? you may have an unmetered air leak. If the TB is allowing more air than is in the calc air table than it will trip the limp mode. If the TB was ported or air is leaking around the coupler it will go into the limp mode. IMHO I would check it.
