Hope you guys can give me some advice. My engine indicator sometime will light up and the car seem to lose power. My friend say could the problem could be due to a faulty throttle body. You guys have any clue?

Thanks Airborne. Not exactly the same. So i guess the only way to fix it is to send to the workshop. You got your fix already?

Nope! happened twice, think never warm up the engine and i rev too high. Could it be that? At least it doesn't happen anymore.
