Throttle pedal replacement question

[cliffhanger]

Right, I've tracked the problem on my 2004 TDCi Connect to the throttle pedal.

The garage are quoting £200 to replace it. I understand from this forum that it's a 10min job. I know I can do it, but the garage say it has to be 'reprogrammed' to the computer, which I couldn't do(no code reader etc).

Can I replace this pedal WITHOUT touching the computer? And could I buy a generic one or does it have to be a Ford replacement?

thanks

It's a straight swap & don't require programming

You've got to love garages who lie to get themselves work
Either that, or they truly don't know, so shouldn't be trusted with the work

It really is plug and play, and 10 mins work
