Dealer pulled my codes today, does this sound right?

After doing all I could to alleviate my TCS problem, I brought it in to have the dealer pull the codes and tell me what was going on. Now I expected them to come back and say that the codes that came out say you need to replace the pedal potentiometer or the throttle body or the like. But, after they pulled them, the service advisor said I originally had 6 fault codes come out, 2 were for the srs and were cleared, but the other 4 came back up again after being cleared. Further, they would need another 2 or 3 hours to diagnoss the 4 codes that remain to find out what the real problem is. Now, this didn't sound quite right to me, as the guy couldn't or wouldn't tell me what the codes stood for, just that I needed to bring it back for further diagnosis. I'm a little dubious for obvious reasons. Usually they come back and say the fault codes are this and show you need to replace this part, seems to be pretty cut and dry to me. I have the four code numbers, 675B0, 68390, 429B0, 26391. Two numbers the techie had listed as being under the DI/APC program and the other 2 he had under the ETS system. I just don't really feel like putting out another couple hundred bucks for them to say that I then need to replace the throttle body. Now when I start it, the TCS light will not come on until I push the throttle once. Before it came on immediately. Any thoughts?
