Throttle Position Sensor question
Hi all, I got the P1221 and P1120 code which I think indicated bad TPS. Is the TPS for C5 Z06 same as the non-Z06? I have a 2003 Z06 and looking at Rockauto.com it looks like the TPS is the same for C5 Z06 and non-Z06. Do you all think this is the right part https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo...n=456&jsn=456?
Any other source other than Rockauto I need to look at?
Thanks all.

Thanks for the Amazon idea, I don’t know why I didn’t think of Amazon for car parts. I ended up getting the Standard Motor Product one from Amazon since it was much cheaper compared to Rockauto and I read that the Delphi one I was going to order might not work. Will I need a special torx bit for this to change the TPS?

looks like the same one i just put in mine (non zo). Had the same codes as you, plus i would get the active handling message and limp mode (embarassing getting passed on the freeway by a prius 
). Make sure you have the tamper resistant torx bit!
