F-150 3.5 Ecoboost Gold Wrench light P2112 error code

1st thing in the morning, 2 days in a row, get 2 miles from home and the RPMs drop to 900 and the transmission drops to 1st gear. Accelerator pedal has no effect at all. Turn engine off/on and light goes out and drives normally. Naturally, the dealer can't duplicate the problem. Any ideas ?

This may be irrelevent but Fast Lane Truck has a video of individual's long lasting trucks. One of the trucks with over 200k miles on it was an ecoboost. The owner said he had to replace the throttle body many times. Said it ate throttle bodies.

Throttle body is a frequent cause of this.

mrenberg ...
Rather than having to play 20 questions ...

HINT/TIP: Put your vehicle information (year, model, cab, trim, engine, wheelbase, _x4 drive, mileage, modifications, etc., etc.) in your signature -OR- provide it in your posting(s).
