Default If a Throttle body is going out....does it make a sound?



And if so..... What does it sound like. I got a bunch of fault codes driving my kid home from playschool. .Before, engine sounded nice. No issues. Suddenly, there is a loud whine coming from the engine bay on the passenger side that begins from startup and continues through rev range. Then the codes lite up, felt like the brakes were locking up on their own. I did do a pretty hard merge onto a freeway from 3rd gear. Could that have caused something to go on the Throttle body? Could it be a throttle body or TPS issue? I read on another post that the sudden fault codes were a symptom caused by a bad TPS? Any ideas or opinions would be helpful.

Thanks.
R.

See my reply to your same post in other place. (Read codes.)
