After a couple of weeks now my 03 is kicking into ETC failsafe mode, i took it to a friend of mine who works at a ford dealership as a mechanic and runs a business part time out of his garage. He says that the #5 coil is wearing down to take into the lincoln dealership because the coils are under warranty. So i take it in and the dealership confirms that 2 coils are bad but they also say the throttle body is bad? My question is should i believe the dealership that the throttle body is bad?? My car has 69,000 miles on it and is not under warranty but the coils are for 100,000 miles. The mechanic i took the car to swears it's just the coils.

Everyone thanks for your help!
 
The bad coil is making them think the TB is bad. Tell them to change the coils first and see what happens. Guaranteed the car is fine after they change them.
 
That's what i thought and was thinking, thank you so much! i appreciate it!
