I was driving to work and all of a sudden, my accelerator pedal goes to the floor. I pull over on the shoulder a pop the hood. I can see under the engine cover where the throttle cable has disconnected from the throttle body. It seems that the plastic the holds the cable on the black spring loaded part connected to the throttle body has broken. My question is, can the black spring loaded part be replaced without replacing the entire throttle body? I already know the the throttle body is $$$$!!!

Please help!

 

I have no idea about the answer but I just wanted to say that is crazy.

 

Exactly! I called Hennesy Lexus and the tech said he has never seen this happen before!

 

bump...

 

wow that insane. So you were just driving? Not flooring the pedal??

 

Just driving about 70 mph, pressed the pedal to pass a semi and nothing! Just got off the line with the dealer and looks like I can order the Accelerator lever assembly part # 22060-50011. I'll let you guys know how it works out.

 

That would be really scary. At first I thought it just stuck to the floor then that would just be insane!!!

 

wow.. that's pretty crazy man.. good luck with the fix... is your car still under warranty? i'd get on their case about it like you'd lose your life and etc. lol

let us know the cost and etc. and if they have some explaination for you!

 

Epoxy that biiatch back together JK.

That part is about 270 bucks shipped from Carson. Had to replace that part myself https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...ighlight=p1120

 

I actually read this post earlier. The local stealer is selling me one for $280. Maybe those jackrabbit take offs just wore it out! Do you have to remove the entire throttle body to replace it?

 

Not at all, it just plug and play since there are prongs on the part. The the throttle cable just snaps in place. 10 minute job.

 

All is well now. Thanks.
