Hello everyone, I am desperately seeking advice. We have a 04 Chevy Tahoe LT 5.3 L. Family loves this vehicle until yesterday. I started vehicle up and it puttered like it was cold. Thought it was strange, but took kids to school and noticed when I went from 20mph to 30mph it acted like it was cutting out. Again strange, called Hubby. He said go ahead and try to get to work, no lights, no engine noise, no warnings. So started to drive the 10 miles to work, got on highway was fine, then when got to 50mph was cutting out again until hit 60mph. Took to friend who owns small salvage yard and shop to put on their handheld machine. Code came up as Mass Air flow sensor and low voltage #5 or something like that. Bought $90 new part, hubby put on and drove 10 miles home just fine. This morning same issues, took back to friend. Now told possibly throttle body $200 part or sensor $100 part. Raising family of 5 can't afford to nickel and dime it. Any ideas?
No I didn't get codes written down. Any help is greatly appreciated!
