Seat Cordoba throttle issue
Summary of the thread
A 2001 Seat Cordoba is experiencing delayed throttle response and an illuminated check engine light, suggesting a potential issue with the throttle valve, accelerator pedal module, or related electronics. The problem includes rough engine idling. A similar case was resolved by diagnosing and replacing the throttle body, which was confirmed by a workshop and cost 265€. The replacement is expected to improve fuel efficiency.

Yeah, the engine idling is all over the place. What did you do to fix it? Was it expensive?

Yep, sounds exactly like my issue. It's probably the throttle body. I'd suggest taking it to a workshop to get it checked out properly. They'll be able to diagnose it for sure.

Thanks for your help. I took it to a workshop. They confirmed it was the throttle valve. The replacement cost was 265€. Hopefully my fuel efficiency will improve now.

Sounds like the same problem I had with my Cordoba. The engine response delay was driving me crazy. Is the engine idling rough?
