engine fault came on just before xmas got it read and said the crank shaft sensor so got it changed £60. Just after new year light came on again got it read said maf or map or throttle body so got the maf sensor checked ok they cleaned the throttle body still on so they changed the map sensor light is off now total for sensor and work £45.they said if this didnt work then it would be £200 for a new throttle body is this reasonable fitted

WHAT ENGINE?
200 for throttle body sounds cheap
is it a 1.6?

check cam timing
this can pull up a maf sensor fault
the lower tensioner falls apart and timing slips enough to cause depression in inlet manifold when its not reqd
