Hello and welcome, throttle possition sensor i think. Is it connected? Check fro trapped wires if it is. I havent had much experience with the 3.2 but it is an electronic throttle so check the plugs are properly fitted etc.

ok Al, i did we did what you told me but that doesnt seem to be the problem still the same no RPM...any other suggestion..

by the way one technician here is saying that the car needs to be reprogrammed though they dont have any experience with this car before... i just want to ask you guys if it is true...

Talking rubbish, as said previously, have you checked the electrical connection to the throttle position sensor (TPS) integral to the throttle bodies at the front of the plenum

ok we did this already, connections seems to be fine though, can you think of any  other reason why this is happpening?

do you think this also  somehow related to the timing?
