could well be - I've had several of these fail - two while in warranty the last one out of pocket 2 yrs back, went with a BBA reman and no issues .
tell tell signs were increasingly rough idle in the am for the 2004 and for the 1999 at more open throttle there would be slight surging - probably an indication that the pots wear in different spots.
on the 2004 I punched it around 60 to pass some people and the CEL went on and it was the TB code.
Search myy posts for the cause told to me by the Saab service mgr in Buffalo NY - they only fail if you use cheap gas like that sold on Indian reservations.
On my 1999 I drove for nearly a year with occasioanl limp home mode until I broke down and bought a reman.
