Skoda Roomster Reduced Engine Power

My 2009 Skoda Roomster with a gasoline engine has reduced engine power. Mileage is 52755 km. I suspect the throttle valve is defective. Could it be the accelerator pedal module or the electronics inside? Is it difficult to replace the throttle body?

Sounds like a faulty throttle position sensor. I had similar response delay and limp mode issues with my old Opel Corsa. Does the check engine light come on?

Yes, the check engine light is on. Could the accelerator pedal module also cause this?

It could be the accelerator pedal module, but it's more likely the throttle body itself or the throttle sensor within it. I'd suggest getting it checked at a workshop.

Replacing the throttle body and sensor resolved the issue. The shop charged 265€ for the replacement.
