[QUOTE="Barn Boy, post: 1226966, member: 87267"] Short version: new to me 2005 in July 2014 with 6,500 miles on it. Had it at the local dealer for the 8,000 mile service and throttle body sync last month. It had one spell of what I would call throttle surge or deceleration before the service. I wrote it off to bad winter gas, treated it with Seafoam and it seemed OK. Put about 40 miles on it a week ago and it surged a few times and died at a rolling stop once. Did some research here about FJR006 and it seemed to have a case of a bad TPS. Rode it to the dealer today and it surged about 10 times and died once in 20 miles. Dealer checked the VIN and it comes up as not eligible for the TPS campaign. Dealer is going to read the fail codes and get back to me about what it is going to take to fix it. My question to the board is, has anyone had a TPS problem with a non affected 2005 VIN? If so, were you able to appeal the repair to Yamaha customer service to get them to pay for it? [/QUOTE]
