Also, is it safe to drive the car while it's acting up like this?
If that's the case, who do you guys recommend I get the actuators from? And is there anything else I should get done while I am in there?
Let me know guys! Thanks.

Replace the fuel tank breather valve while you're in there. The car can still be driven in limp mode. However, the throttle actuator codes may disappear on restart. The codes can be cleared with the Carly Ap - BUT - the codes will increase in frequency from say coding once a quarter, to once a month to once per day until failure. |
Thank you so much for the link to the write up and where to get them from!! Seems like a great deal with the lifetime warranty. How often do they usually go out?
