Title: new throttle position sensor Post by: njesper on June 12, 2012, 10:08:02 pm Hi all,
My father in law, has a renault alpine v6 gt with a 3l 12v v6 from an espace (parden the blasphemy :o) and the tps (throttle position sensor) has gone bad. So he has been looking for a new sensor/replacement, but its been impossible. He has tried contacting Renault Denmark, the renault club etc. and nobody can help him on where to get a new one, so then I came to think of the espace part on the matra forum. The data is: z7x-775 Solex tps. Does anybody know where to get one like this (after market, whatever..) Best regards, ;D Jesper Colding Title: Re: new throttle position sensor Post by: renaultbiler on June 12, 2012, 10:29:43 pm All Espace have fuel injection
Tried Simon Auto ? http://www.simon-auto.de/ Title: Re: new throttle position sensor Post by: njesper on June 12, 2012, 10:42:00 pm fuel injection, yes... but it still has a tps doesnt it?
And yes, my father in law has also tried simon with no luck. Jesper Title: Re: new throttle position sensor Post by: BrianM on June 13, 2012, 08:31:54 am I cant imagine why it is hard to find!
Does it look like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-Espace-3-0-V6-Throttle-Position-Sensor-/200614551678?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2eb58f207e Title: Re: new throttle position sensor Post by: njesper on June 13, 2012, 12:57:56 pm dono i will check, anyways he's not seeking a used one. A new or new identical (for use on another engine, with same specs)
Title: Re: new throttle position sensor Post by: BrianM on June 13, 2012, 03:21:29 pm Yes I appreciate he is after new, The no. on it (0 280 122 009) looks to be a bosch part no. you should be able to get it from a bosch. I have the bosch software on another computer, when I have a min I will look it up.
But see this: http://www.worldcarparts.co.uk/tabid/144/CategoryID/436/ProductID/2658/language/en-GB/Default.aspx Title: Re: new throttle position sensor Post by: renaultbiler on June 14, 2012, 06:14:47 am If the Solex carbs incl tps is taken from Alpine GT (D503) you should be looking for a R25 tps with part no 7701035404 - that is the one fitted on D503 with Z7X 744 engine
Did anyone at Renault even try to check availability with a part number ? My impression is that Renault have a good system for special ordering of parts if the part is no longer in stock, but that requires a special order from your dealer!

Didn't read it right 12v engine. See this from renaultbilers part no. http://www.partspool.com/languageversions/English/ForSalePartsList_Manu_E.asp?select_Man=179&Select_Num=7701035404&Select_Desc=&Source=pp&Submit=Now+Click+to+find+a+Part |
