    It's a notorious issue on the gen 1. The TB actuator gets stuck and it trips the CEL putting the car into limp mode. Most common issue is the weather...more so during the colder months. My solution for this was to let the engine get up to temperature before shut it off. Once I turned it back on everything was back to normal.

    There's plenty...it's the VTCS misbehaving. There's dozens of threads out there about p2006 and the VTCS and ways to fix it.

    what I'm reading is VTCS delete. but also could be the solenoid - I'll need to take it in and figure out exactly what the problem is.
