SpaceTourer throttle valve issue

I'm having a weird issue with my 2021 Citroen SpaceTourer (electric engine). I've noticed a significant reduction in engine power, especially when accelerating. The check engine light is on and the scan points to a defective throttle valve. Could this be related to the accelerator pedal module or dodgy electronics? I am a little concerned about fuel efficiency now.

I had something similar happen in my SpaceTourer. Check engine light came on, and the air flow was completely messed up. Seemed like the car just didn't want to go sometimes. Was the response delay very noticeable?

Response delay is definitely noticeable! It feels like the car hesitates before accelerating. Did you ever figure out what the exact cause was and the eventual replacement cost?

Yeah, sounds like the same thing. I didn't mess with it too much myself; took it straight to the workshop. They confirmed it was the throttle valve acting up. Best to get it checked before it gets worse, if I am honest.

Thanks for the advice! I took it to my local shop, and they confirmed it was the throttle valve, and as you suspected, it had to be replaced. Total repair cost was 265€, so not too bad. Hopefully, this will solve the check engine issue for good.
